DEagleDave Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Hi, can anyone point me to the correct format and settings to allow using a domain name in the IP Address field when using Connect by IP option ? Last time I ran a Linux server (about v17.x IIRC) this option was working but not working for me now (under A19.1 on Ubuntu 20.04 LTE). Currently tried <domain name> but that's not working (where <domain name> is my domain name as supplied by No-Ip.com) Haven't tried prefixing it using say http://<domain name> Yes, using ping returns a response from the <domain name> so it is spelt and responding correctly. With a brief search through the config options information I haven't found what the specific format needs to be so any pointers (pun intended) gratefully received.

SylenThunder Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Because our website is not hosted at the same location I created a subdomain. Our main website is mastersofchaosgaming.com Connect-url that points to the server hardware is connect.mastersofchaosgaming.com We then just replace the connect address with the domain url. steam://connect/68.41.178.221:26910 becomes steam://connect/connect.mastersofchaosgaming.com:26910 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEagleDave Posted October 20, 2020 Author Share Posted October 20, 2020 @SylenThunder - tried this but no-one could join. Had feedback that this returned a message of "Friend is not currently playing" (words to that effect), which doesn't make sense since this is to a __dedicated__ server for just that reason, so any one of them can join and not need anyone else playing at the time. Is "Steam://connect ..." associated with a Steam Link device ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
