hi. you may have a look here : http://www.ofp-fr.net/ofp/

I already tried this. But i have the same error as before. My debian use libc6 v2.3.2.ds1-18. I have not a seg fault error but a "Server creation failed" error. Il also have a huge amount of memory used without -mod ( memory used: 4193508 KB ) and a normal amount of memory used with -mod (1916 KB)

I think that the problem is not the lack of missions in Operation Flashpoint, but the lack of good missions in Operation Flashpoint. It's easier to start making a mission than an addon. But i think it's more difficult to finish and debug a mission than a addon. You have to guess all kind of players'action, random situations etc...

I come back on this old topic. I still have the same problem : OFP server work fine on my 2.4.27 kernel, but not on my 2.6.9 kernel. I recompile my 2.6.9 kernel with this config file : http://ndf1985.free.fr/config-2.6.9-Flo_Wer benu : can i have your kernel config option file to make a diff plz ?

You can also try this one : http://www.ofrp.net/index.php?m=dd&ind=18&clng=en All other missions are co-op, but you can try them alone

Yup. I'm using NAT. But that's not the problem ..... what if i want to run the serv only in my private network ? It should start anyway.... That's what i do when i change my resolv.conf to have my ISP DNS in it. the nslookup work fine. but it don't change anything ... That's all. Forewarding work fine with my 2.4 kernel.

So ... no idea ?

Ok, some littles things are corrected : (a firewall problem) I have now : Hostname :<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">[MYNAME].[MYTLD] [MYNAME] doesn't start by a number. Hosts :<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.2.2 [MYNAME].[MYTLD] [MYNAME] resolv.conf :<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">search [MYTLD] nameserver 127.0.0.1 (i have my own bind) if i remove the <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">192.168.2.2 [MYNAME].[MYTLD] [MYNAME] from hosts, and change the "nameserver 127.0.0.1" to "nameserver [MYISPDNS]", i'll have this : In both case, the result is the same. I guess now my network config is good, but it works on kernel 2.4, and still not on 2.6.

I find out the problem of memory. It's just linked to the missing -nomap option. Kernel 2.6 without -nomap : high Memory used Kernel 2.6 with -nomap : normal Memory used Kernel 2.4 without -nomap : normal Memory used Kernel 2.4 with -nomap : normal Memory used I checked all my dns config. And i don't know where i'm wrong. Here is the config which run on kernel 2.4, but not on kernel 2.6 : Hostname :<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">[MYNAME].[MYTLD] [MYNAME] doesn't start by a number. Hosts :<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost [MYNAME].[MYTLD] quite strange that i need to have [MYNAME].[MYTLD] (the same as the content of hostname) here. But if i remove [MYNAME].[MYTLD] from the first line and add the line : <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">192.168.2.2 [MYNAME].[MYTLD] or <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">[MYPUBLICIP] [MYNAME].[MYTLD] The server don't start anymore on kernel 2.4 resolv.conf :<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">search [MYTLD] nameserver 127.0.0.1 (i have my own bind) if i change the "nameserver 127.0.0.1" to "nameserver [MYISPDNS]", i'll have this : but .... the result is the same. It doesn't work on both 2.4 and 2.6 kernel. I really don't understand why i need to have [MYNAME].[MYTLD] in the 127.0.0.1 line of my /etc/hosts

I have both 2.4 and 2.6 available. I switch from one to the other with lilo. Everythings works on the 2.6 except the OFP linux server :/ i have this libc6 : 2.3.2.ds1-13. It don't work also with the lib in the FAQ in my case .... i really don't know what to do... @RN Malboeuf : No, just a normal OFP with few addons.

The packets are exactly the same. I switch form 2.4 to 2.6 (and from 2.6 to 2.4) with lilo. Here are the lsmod output : kernel 2.4 : Module Size Used by Not tainted nfsd 75312 8 (autoclean) lockd 52528 1 (autoclean) [nfsd] sunrpc 74016 1 (autoclean) [nfsd lockd] ipt_limit 1016 1 (autoclean) ipt_state 536 1 (autoclean) ip_conntrack 22976 0 (autoclean) [ipt_state] iptable_filter 1772 1 (autoclean) ip_tables 13184 3 [ipt_limit ipt_state iptable_filter] dm-mod 29896 0 (unused) w83781d 19128 0 (unused) i2c-proc 7600 0 [w83781d] i2c-isa 1132 0 (unused) i2c-core 16144 0 [w83781d i2c-proc i2c-isa] 3c59x 26864 1 af_packet 14728 0 (unused) rtc 7752 0 (autoclean) ext3 85128 3 (autoclean) jbd 45976 3 (autoclean) [ext3] ide-detect 288 0 (autoclean) (unused) ide-disk 17120 5 (autoclean) amd74xx 10212 1 (autoclean) ide-core 113180 5 (autoclean) [ide-detect ide-disk amd74xx] unix 17196 9 (autoclean) kernel 2.6 : Module Size Used by nfsd 201024 8 exportfs 7488 1 nfsd lockd 65672 2 nfsd sunrpc 159332 2 nfsd,lockd ipv6 270624 18 ipt_limit 3136 1 ipt_state 2560 1 ip_conntrack 37060 1 ipt_state iptable_filter 3392 1 ip_tables 19520 3 ipt_limit,ipt_state,iptable_filter dm_mod 46048 0 capability 5064 0 commoncap 7808 1 capability w83781d 35200 0 i2c_sensor 3392 1 w83781d i2c_isa 2560 0 i2c_core 24704 3 w83781d,i2c_sensor,i2c_isa 3c59x 39976 0 af_packet 24072 0 rtc 14408 0 ext3 129576 3 jbd 69720 1 ext3 mbcache 10500 1 ext3 ide_disk 19840 6 ide_generic 1920 0 amd74xx 15260 1 ide_core 144208 3 ide_disk,ide_generic,amd74xx sd_mod 22272 0 ata_piix 8452 0 libata 41924 1 ata_piix scsi_mod 127108 2 sd_mod,libata unix 31280 18 font 8896 0 vesafb 7136 0 cfbcopyarea 4224 1 vesafb cfbimgblt 3520 1 vesafb cfbfillrect 4160 1 vesafb

as i said, i have checked these files. If i switch them to incorrect values, i cannot start with kernel 2.4 (and 2.6 of course). I have the same error message (can't create socket ...), but a correct "memory used" value. So i guess my files are good .... and the problem is linked to the too high "memory used" value. (~489000 KB) Does your kernel 2.6 OFP server used as much memory ?

I've just tried the solutions you give in your FAQ with the libs, but it still don't work. So i have no clue to solve the problem. Dashers is it working for you ?

it's just the default kernel on debian. this one : apt-get install kernel-image-2.6.7-1-k7-smp Edit : Ok. I just edit my hostname files, and i also experiment the problem on the 2.4 kernel with a correct value of memory used (around 7000 KB). I go back to my first values, and it works again on the 2.4, but not on the 2.6. So i think my problem is not network/hostname/dns related.

hi. I have the same problem as Dashers, and i think the key is the kernel version. example with exactly the same version, cfg, files .... on kernel 2.4.26 : 11:21:20 Dedicated server created, memory used: 7960 KB Operation Flashpoint Console version 1.96: port 2402 - Sockets 11:21:26 Server identity created on kernel 2.6.7 : 11:17:27 Dedicated server created, memory used: 489244 KB Server creation failed : 2402 Just look at the "memory used" value... So my question is : Does ofp linux server works on a 2.6 kernel ?
