Server Dropping Clients

Greetings...

Users connecting to my server, after a reboot today, have started to receive this error message, though I've no idea why, nothing in my config has changed, save for my server long name... here is the excerpt from my world log:

Code:

[03.30. - 21:55:43] [WORLD__CLIENT] New connection from 216.205.217.129:1711
[03.30. - 21:55:44] [NET__ERROR] 216.205.217.129:1711: Received OP_SessionRequest in ESTABLISHED state (0)
[03.30. - 21:55:44] [NET__IDENTIFY] Unable to identify stream from 216.205.217.129:1711 before it closed.
[03.30. - 21:57:19] [WORLD__CLIENT] New connection from 216.205.217.129:1211
[03.30. - 21:57:20] [NET__ERROR] 216.205.217.129:1211: Received OP_SessionRequest in ESTABLISHED state (0)
[03.30. - 21:57:20] [NET__IDENTIFY] Unable to identify stream from 216.205.217.129:1211 before it closed.

As you can see it's nearly instantaneous. Anyone have any idea why?

I don't know why, but I had it sort of working a about a week back, but now it is doing the same thing yours is. Dropped session right away.

Yeah, now I'm losing connection to the loginserver very often as well.

Losing connection to loginserver could be totaly unrelated - That happens to me too, for different reasons. But usually gets re-connected again, and if anyone's in the game, they don't get booted, unless problem is from my ISP.
The other may just be someone scanning your ports, and the emulator thinks its a player.
If one player can get in to you server, then so should others.

Aye. I do have days though that I've had to restart the world.exe several times before anyone could login prior to getting dropped. I need to do some forum mining and find all the ports that need to be open to accept game play. Thanks all for your input.

Code:

3306/udp 5999/udp 9000/udp 7000:7004/udp 3306/tcp 5999/tcp 7000:7004/tcp

That's what I have cleared off my Linux firewall , 5999 is the mini-login port and 7000-7004 are the default Zone-Launcher ports. For static I add in the ports that follow (example 10 additional static zones would be 7000:7015.
The zone launcher ports may be different to you, but over here it's what my emulator defaults to (if I don't change anything).

I've been running comodo and have noticed quite a few additional ports that zone and world are taking connections on. Just updated my firewall last night, but have no idea if anyone can login yet. I did notice a login in this morning, that was sent to zone and it started zone output, but then the connection was dropped. It appears to be a normal drop, just no idea until I can get someone to login.
