Utility to change a port in Software ?

Post by rafi_d »

I have a server/game Software that uses a TCP and UDP ports but has not facility to modify them. This makes in impossible to operate on several PC's behind a router, since port forwarding is not possible.
Is there a way (proxy software?) that can help modifying those ports ?

Tell us what game and platform and perhaps we will know of a way.
Simply run adaware, spybot, ZoneAlarm, HijackThis, AVG, update windows daily, have a router, don't open e-mail, turn off action scripting, don't use P2P networks, don't violate EULAs, and wear a condom to get Windows secured.

People say Linux is alot of work!

Well, a quick google for that game doesn't turn up much. I would imagine there is a config file somwhere which specifies the port.

That might be the place to look "config.dat" but I have a feeling that most folks want to edit that for another reason. I don't have the game so I'm not familiar with it but I would at least get the tool they used and see if you can look into the files for the ports that it uses.

UDP = 3658 & 6000 TCP = 13505

It might be worth a shot.
Sorry I can't be of more assistance. Seems silly that they wouldn't build in the ability to change the ports. Are you trying to run two servers or have two PCs connect to the same server?
