I would like to setup a way to ping my game server without having to show my IP. I want to put a link on my forums so people can click on it and ping my server. Thing is my server is my home IP so i don't want to post that on the forums.

You guys know how i might do this??

I dont think there is a way, even if you use services such as no-ip, it still does ping your ip (showing it)

LOL doesn't really worry me just didn't want to if i could avoid it.Any ip that comes near my comp gets logged so they can try if they want but they will be in for a surprise.

S1. i take that as you don't think its possible Razz

Thanks for the links Van buren Smile

I seriously doubt anyone will try and hack a posted IP unless the site gets millions of hits. I doubt it even then. If one of them does decide to try, they probably won't get past any decent firewall. Most small-time hackers don't have a clue what they're doing.
