    Hi everyone - I recently decided to give RRE a wee try and I already run dedi game servers for Project Cars 2 and AMS so got straight on to the RRE dedi setup.

    Got the basic server running fine, can join it online and running well - however I want to be able to access the server GUI remotely. I can connect to it remotely using a DNS name I use for remote access to my systems, however it just comes back "bad host name" and seems you can only connect to the GUI if you use the localhost:8088 URL (which is useless anywhere but on the local machine).

    I found this localhost URL in the milkyway.dedicated.config file and added a new URL for the remote access URL, but it just overwrites this each time I run the dedi server.

    Couldn't find anything covering how to do this online so hoping someone here has some insight.

    Many Thanks.

    And I worked it out - scanned over the part about setting up GUI logins and didn't realise this also opened up the GUI for remote access ;)
