Having a few issues setting up a dedicated server

[GlitchStorm]

Ok, so I'm trying to set up a small dedicated server for friends. I have it mostly working, it's fast dl, I have an auto restart script, ports are forwarded, everything. but I can't get it to go into online mode, it's always LAN. How do I resolve this? I put sv_lan 0 in the server.cfg file, but that still doesn't work. Also, how do I make myself an admin? I don't have any mods like ulx installed, and was wondering how to elevate my position.

Start.bat:

@echo off
cls
echo Protecting srcds from crashes...
echo If you want to close srcds and this script, close the srcds window and type Y depending on your language followed by Enter.
title srcds.com Watchdog
:srcds
echo (%time%) srcds started.
start /wait srcds.exe -console -game garrysmod +map gm_bigcity +maxplayers 16 -authkey AUTHKEYISHERE +host_workshop_collection WORKSHOPIDISHERE
echo (%time%) WARNING: srcds closed or crashed, restarting.
goto srcds

The only reason for the LAN problem I can think of is that you didn't port forward correctly or that the firewall is blocking SRCDS.

You can set privileges on settings/users.txt file in your dedicated server.

also you might want to change your rcon password since you just posted it here but if they cant connect its like he said

if u dont change your rcon password and someone gets on your server that cant be trusted and they have your rcon password they can ruin your server

oh and if your checking to see if it will work with an online port checker you might want to stop that and just have a friend try to connect i learned that the hard way :( the port checker wouldnt work at all
