Ok i have googled every combination possible but can't find anything that helps, I am trying to set up battlefield 2 server on my linux box.

I have the correct ports translating on my NAT router (belkin), thats not a problem.
I have (temporarly) disabled iptables on my linux (fedora 4) box also.

In the serversettings.con, i have tried every combination of my external IP, and my internal IP with the two variables:

sv.serverIP "<string>"
&
sv.interfaceIP "<string>"
&
sv.allowNATNegotiation 0|1

If i put my external IP for sv.serverIP (which every place i look tells me to), it just starts with [no game] and doesnt do anything.
If i put in my internal ip for both variables, it starts up find but wont list on battlefield 2 servers b/c its internal ip.

EDIT: Also if put the external IP for the interfaceIP, it will crash right away.

please help
