[Archive] connecting server on LAN trouble
[Archive] connecting server on LAN trouble
Original source
Hi everyone!
Like some others here, I have a trouble when I want to use my server on my LAN.
I have 2 computers => GAMING and DATASERVER
When I put the wow server and the client on GAMING it's works fine!
But when I use the server on DATASERVER and try to connect from client on GAMING, I'm stuck on connection to the world:

The pop up appears and disappear few seconds later!
What I have done on DATASERVER until now:
Disable my firewall
add "192.168.1.100 localhost" at the end of my host file (192.168.1.100 is LAN IP adress of my DATASERVER)
On worldserver.conf => change the bindIP to 192.168.1.100.
On authserver.conf =>change the bindIP to 192.168.1.100.
On my GAMING computer:
Changing the realmlist file with 192.168.1.100.
Did I miss something or not?
Thanks a lot for your help!

You need to also change the IP in the realmlist table inside of the Auth SQL database.
1) run mysql and access it by a database editor (HeidiSQL is nice)
2) go to the auth database and look for the realmlist table
3) in the data section of the table modify address to the IP of the system hosting. (Dataserver's IP in your case)
I hope this helps.

thanks a lot for your answer!
As I thought, I miss some steps.
After I have done the modification, it's works fine!!
Thanks again!
