Think your config is fine. Did you forward your ports correctly?

The most common problems when setting up servers are routers and firewalls. If the server machine goes through a router, make sure you set the router to forward UDP packets on port 27910 (or whatever port you're running the server on) to the server machine. Likewise open up port 27910 on your firewall and ensure that paintball2.exe is allowed to act as a server.

its allowed through my firewall.....and I don't have a router.

EDIT: ok....I'm getting all kinds of different things about what a router is.....so I know I do have a router....but I dunno how to access it to make sure its right.

If you want help, the worst thing you can possibly do is make a thread named "help" because everyone will just think you're a noob who can't tell exactly what his/her problem is, and not worth their time helping... just saying...

:P

The real reason not to make a thread so vague is just that, people won't enter it because it doesn't mean anything. Its ok to not know what the problem is :P

I got more help from this thread than I did from my other ones..cuz I knew the problem...I just didn't know how to fix it...and I still don't know what to do. I scanned my computer and got 1 unknown object...I check it out and have no clue what it is.
