February 26, 20233 yr I have several game servers that I host on my Unraid server using docker containers. Up till recently they have been working fine, however my friends are no longer able to connect to them from outside my local network. Locally connecting to the servers works fine using the tower.local url but attempting to connect to the server by using the public IP or by using a host name does not work. I have set up port forwarding to point towards the server and the correct ports are assigned. For example, I have a Valheim server hosted using a docker container with Unraid (I also have a Minecraft and a Terraria server that have the same issues now). When attempting to connect to it from the local network it works fine. When attempting to connect to server using the public IP, it tells the players they failed to connect. I also have hosted the server on Windows and it set the port forwarding towards my desktop and it worked fine that way. This leads me to believe there is an issue with my Docker config or with how I have the containers setup. tower-diagnostics-20230225-1927.zip
