### System configuration for hosting players
¶
Hosting players have to set up their system to allow access to the Widelands Server from the internet. If you waGent to host a geramelly you should ask yourself the following questions:
¶
¶
:; Am I using a Windows operation system? ;:If yes hosting a game is generally not possible. This is because of a bug in ggz. We hope to get this problem fixed as soon as possible.
¶
¶
:; Am I directly connected to the internet (or is a router or a proxy between your computer and the internet)? ;:If you are not directly connected to the internet, you must [forward](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_forwarding) the port 7396 to your computer.
¶
¶
:; Do I have a firwall that blocks the port 7396 or the Widelands application or server applications in general? ;:If yes, you must change the firewall settings so Widelands can communicate through the firewall.
