    The server works perfectly on this machine if I use the local host, or if I change it to use my LAN IP. But as soon as I use my DNS Host address It tells me and anyone else who tries to connect "Unable to connect to realm list server".

    The thing is, in the realmd.exe command window I see myself and others connect and it says their account name authenticated successfully. So I think I'm just missing one step here.

    This is what I have changed:
    1. I edited the realmlist to have my IP be the DNS Host name.
    2. I have Port Forwarding set up for 8085, 3724, 3306, 1400-1401, and 80 the Server IP is set to my LAN IP.
    3. I have added "LAN-IP DNS-NAME" to the final line in my Host file in the ect folder.
    4. I have changed the realmlist.wtf to my DNS name.

    I get the same error from this machine or any from the net. "Unable to connect to realm list server".

    What step am I missing?

    i was also getting this error, what you have to do is somwhere in the config files is another entry for the world database address. im assuming that you can connect alright but cant see the realm's? i will have a look for you on my server, becasue i know i was having the same problem. i will repost soon!
