0 Tore Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 To change the port used by CnCNet go to the folder where you installed CnCNet and open cncNet.xml with notepad. There you will find "<port>8054</port>" and change it to what port you want. I'm unsure if changing the port CnCNet uses will cause problems. EDIT: Changing this setting WILL break CnCNet functionality, do NOT do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Nyerguds Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Problem is, it's not just the port CnCNet uses. It's simply the port C&C itself uses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 pichorra Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Go to cncnet directory (defaut c:\program files, cncnet) open the cncnet.xml with a notepad, and change that <port>8054</port> change the port for one computer and anoter for anoter computer ex: CPU1 in my home: <port>8054</port> CPU2 in my home uses: <port>5054</port> but i not know if the 2 computers will work togeter, because the cnc use the default port 5009 (not sure) but i dont know how to change that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Irony Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Changing the port is currently unsupported. It may or may not work based on your configurations and I can't offer any support to non-standard ports atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Nyerguds Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 pichorra... as I said, that may change the port CnCNet uses, but the real problem is that C&C ITSELF uses UDP port 8054 anyway. Modifying the CnCNet configuration won't change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
