New to Project 1999 - Can't Access Server

[Lexical]

You don't have to go deep into your network just the box that isn't working properly. If other computers going through your router can connect to the server just fine, then it isn't your router. I can't really give you good step by step instructions since I don't really know what the problem is. I suggested looking at your NIC(Network Interface Card) configurations on the problem box and seeing if it lines up with your other boxes' configs. You might have to shift through the registry to find all of them. I would need more info as well so looking at your network traffic(you probably don't want to post it here though) to and from the server could shed some light on the situation. All I really have to go on is:

2013-01-14 18:04:00 Networking: using port [64404].
2013-01-14 18:04:00 Networking: Connection Established [1]
2013-01-14 18:04:00 WorldAuthenticate: Initiating Login.
2013-01-14 18:04:02 Networking: Connection Closed [0] with 0 pending bytes.
2013-01-14 18:04:02 *** ERROR: WorldAuthenticate. My message arrival was NULL, the net has been shutdown.
2013-01-14 18:04:02 *** WorldAuthenticate. Checkpoint 3.

Which tells me you are connecting to the server and then the connection closes 2 seconds later since you didn't receive a response(NULL Response). I have no idea what Checkpoint 3 means, but maybe a dev can shed some light on that. I am honestly just shooting in the dark without your network traffic though.

Where in my registry do I go to check those configurations?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Tcpip\Parameters

But I couldn't follow the directions to look at it on my PC.

Also, check your firewall logs and see if it is dropping any traffic going to you on port 64404.

I am sorry for confusing you guys. If you want to look at your NIC settings, I suggest the registry/control panel. If you want to view your network traffic, I suggest using a packet sniffer. I personally use wireshark: http://www.wireshark.org/

Are we talking the firewall install on my OS or the questionable one installed on my router?

Depends, can other computers connect to P99 through your router? If yes, then only the firewall on your box is fine. If no, then both.

Ok so I'm in the parameters tab of the registry and theres a ton of values and items I'm unfamiliar with, which ones would I need to take a look at?
