im trying to make a server for me and my friends so i did the command prompt and when i type ventrilo_srv, at the bottom it says

accepting connections on these interface(s)

1:169.254.178.233
2:69.235.160.67
3:127.0.0.1

does that mean that only i can connect to my server?

when other people try to connect to my server they get an error. help?

No, this means the server is assigning it self to those 3 IP's 2 being external, 1 being localhost. If they get an error while attempting to connect to one of the external IP's than something is blocking their connection. Make sure you have the port 3784 open in your firewall.

If you dont think your running a firewall you probably are and done know it. So double check and turn them off.

Is this linux or windows?

If its linux type service iptables stop or iptables -F and see if they can connect.
If its windows go to the control panel and turn off the Firewall (or any 3rd party firewall you are using such as blackice, norton, & zonealarm.

Hope this helps.

1 is external, 2 are internal, the 169.254.178.233 ip is what is used when winxp can't find a dhcp server.
