Thanks Aussie il remove that line and see if anything changes. And Tankbuster that line that says reportingIP.. If i dont put anything in there my game does not appear in server list?? i can oonly find it on LAN.. So i when i put armedass. blah blah it then showed up?? am i still doing something wrong?? if someone can explain the whole file it would help.. You have arrived SPAFF lol.. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Thanks again all.

Rick im done pal..My target line looks like this.."C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA\arma_server.exe" -config=server.cfg and then after making my cfg file in proffesional file editor my cfg file looks like this. ish // comments are written with "//" in front of them. // server.cfg passwordAdmin = ""; // password to protect admin access password = ""; // password required to connect to server hostname=""; motd[]= {"Welcome to  server.","Hosted by -.",}; // Welcome message, two lines "," means 'new line' motdInterval=1; // voteThreshold=0.33; // reportingIP="armedass.master.gamespy.com"; //  voteMissionPlayers=10; // start voting for missions when 3 checkfiles[]={"HWTL\dta\data3d.pbo","dta\data3d.pbo"}; //list of files to check for identity kickduplicate=1; // do not allow duplicate id equalModRequired=1; // require equal mod class Missions {}; with my password and host name filled in of course.. it was the reporting ip i had wrong. now it says the armedass.master.gamespy line spelt correctly it is showing up online... woo hoo. Thanks to TankbusterSPAFF for your input And thank you to all who came up with suggestions, they all helped me get a touch closer. GOOD LUCK RICK.  Thanks again
