I'm trying to play AC using a FreeBSD gateway and dynamic port aliasing . I can get into the game for a short period , but after about a minute , I get the " Server has disconnected " dialog .
There is a bug in all currently available FreeBSD versions that causes dynamic UDP aliases to time out even though there is downstream traffic through the aliased ports. A fix to alias_db.c has been committed to FreeBSD -- current as of 5/20/99.
Dear FreeBSD
I have a free bsd router between my familys intrenet and the internet( and so far it has worked bueatifully). I have yet to hear any words on the dynamic port aliasing from the Asheron's Call people. I wonder if there has been a fix for this problem. I have had no problem with my router at all( it has helpedme at every turn) accept this. But to my little brother this ONE thing is to much, to me i dont mind. If there has been a fix for this problem please respond (if you think I am totally nuts becuase noone has said a word point me to the right people and I will go where i am pointed)
