Need assistance concerning server.

[Gobble-Bot]

Hey everyone. Im working on a server and I need to make sure something is working.

I need people to try to join my server: Sanjit.
This is the first time im exploring what I can do with servers, so some of the info I give you might be wrong.
Name: Sanjit
IP?: 0.0.0.0:61322
This will be opened in LAN until Maybe an hour after this post. Which is like, what, 12:39 Central time?
Please tell me if I get any of the info wrong or if theres any I promblems. Thanks~!

So, you do know that the IP 0.0.0.0:61322 is not a valid ip for others except for the hosting machine.
To find your IP you can go to http://whatsmyip.net/
also, don't you have friends who play Minecraft if so get them to test for you.
Not sure if advertising for other servers is allowed, though I might be wrong here because the rules doesn't tell that clearly.

I've never used this before, and I am merely testing to see if i get it right. Im not advertising it in any way. And no, I am a hobo who has no friends. :/

What does it say when you enter it toby?

It's just stays as "connecting to server"

Weird.....Anyone else get this? I would like to hear your feedback.

Toby Maybe its just loading?

LAN is only for people connected to your internet connection.. You have to make it public to let anyone join it.
Also, this should be in Anything Minecraft, not General Support because you are asking people to test out your server, not answer a question. (Or at least I think)

Moved thread to "Anything Minecraft"
