dedicated-0.2.8.3_rc2 w/authentication behind NAT

[daemon]

I set up a armagetronad-dedicated-0.2.8.3_rc2 behind a router with NAT. Ports are fowarded.
Authentication works fine when connecting to the server via LAN (and TRUST_LAN 1).

But if I connect via WAN and try to authenticate, i get the following error, which doesn't really make sense to me:

Login failed, reason: Server address mismatch, 1.2.3.4:5678 (sent by client) != *.*.*.*:* (our address). Pharming suspected. If you are connecting from the LAN and get this error, either set "TRUST_LAN" on the server (only if your LAN can be fully trusted, of course) or use "SERVER_IP" to make the local IP known to the server.

As mentioned before, TRUST_LAN is set. Binding the public IP isn't possible because of the router sitting in between... Am I missing something? Any ideas?

Thanks.

You need to either have your server listed on a master server (the master will tell the server it's IP), or to set SERVER_IP to the IP your server is visible as to the client.

Otherwise the server won't know it's IP and authentication safechecks will fail.

May as well go ahead and upgrade to 0.2.8.3 final, too, by the way.

Hmm. SERVER_IP is documented as the address it binds to.

Yeah, use SERVR_DNS instead. If you don't have a DNS name resolving to your public IP, just set the IP in there.

Thanks alot, SERVER_DNS did the trick.
