Oh ok, I read that it was Gamespy traffic going on that port so I just assumed it was the one to use. When I try on the 2302 I get connection refused though and my firewall isn't blocking it... I also checked with Pingdom and I have to supply the expected response string so if someone has it I would be very happy to get it :)

Ok, I'll have to check with Pingdom if they can accept any response :) Thanks for your help so far! ---------- Post added at 16:21 ---------- Previous post was at 16:14 ---------- When doing a query on port 2303 (I guess since it's a gamespy challenge?) I don't get any data. Could that be your string? Because my server is available right now.

Hey Sorry to bother but I can't find out how to calculate the response? I haven't really done much UDP at all so I'm kinda lost :( What I'm trying to do is to use Pingdom (monitoring service) to check if it's possible to contact/join my arma server

Hello I'm trying to set up a connection check that will see if my server is available or not but since arma 2 uses UDP I need a string to send and a response but I can't find any info on it with google or searching these forums. Could anyone help me?
