    My server seems to be running great after all this hard work. I'm actually having a blast but my problem atm is I'm looking at my router screen, and I really want to do the port forwarding, but I've never done this. I've been searching for more detailed posts for the answer but to no avail.

    Previous post-
    "Then setup your port forwarding -- port# for mangos, port# for realmd, 80 for website, 3306 for SQL, and if you have Team Speak you also need port 51234 forwarded to
    show your TS server status on your website."

    So in my router does this mean for example that the port info would look like..

    Application Start End Protocol IP Address Enable
    mangos 8085 8085 TCP 192.168.1.0 x
    realmd 8085 8085 TCP 192.168.1.0 x
    mysql 3306 3306 TCP 192.168.1.0 x
    localhost 80 80 TCP 192.168.1.0 x

    Does this look right? Do I need to change anything?
    PS - When I install the GM vendors, do I still need to find them in the database and then add them manually into the game?

    Thanks again for everyone's contribution. I wouldn't have gotten this far without it :)

    Finally it's live - the silence is deafening.

    Is there anywhere to add a server to a listing where other wow fanatics might find me?

    Though this server is mostly for development purposes, I was hoping to have a few testers. If anyone is interested reply here. If anyone needs help doing something, I've learned a few tricks from these forums and will gladly help.

    Took a good day or two, again thks mostly to the reaper forums. The coffee and smoke was definitely needed :) Thank goodness for that...

    answer = yes and yes

    "Is there anywhere to add a server to a listing where other wow fanatics might find me?"

    answer = yes, go to Dyndns.org and setup a free address (like mine @ http://www.remarsworld.selfip.com )
    once you are out on the web after a few days the web crawlers will find you and your site can be found using google with whatever keywords you have on your main page (index.whatever_type_you_are_using)
