Feature Embedded proxy in your server.

[Mkalo]

This was made in TFS 1.3 but should work in any TFS distribution as long you implement it correctly.



It works by changing the gameserver ip and port that the client is going to connect to. The proxyId is bound to the account and should be changed through your website. I won't provide any web page for this as there is too many AAC's so if you use it please consider sharing the page code with everyone (It would be nice since you are using this for free.)

You can add as many proxies you want in config.lua, tho it won't check if the proxy is alive or not.

Changes:
proxyList.patch · GitHub

And this in the database:

ALTER TABLE `accounts` ADD `proxy_id` INT NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' AFTER `lastday`;

How to setup your proxy using nginx:

Run:

sudo nano /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

Add this:

stream {
    server {
        listen YOUR_PROXY_PORT;
        proxy_pass SERVER_IP:SERVER_PORT;
    }
}

Save it and run:

sudo nginx -s reload

Nice, gonna be tricky to parse this config.lua file, but I will give it a go with Znote AAC.

proxyList = {
    [1] = {ip = "158.69.12.213", port = 7172, name = "USA"},
    [2] = {ip = "2.2.2.2", port = 7177, name = "Germany"},
    [3] = {ip = "3.3.3.3", port = 7178, name = "Germany X2"}
}

 

[Mkalo]

Change the value in config to make easier for AAC's to parse the proxy list now the format is a string with:

"ID,IP,PORT,NAME;ID,IP,PORT,NAME..."

Each proxyInfo contains 4 values and they are separated by ";".

 

[Mkalo]

A modal window script to change the proxy server inside the game: [Lua] function Player:sendProxyModalWindow() local proxyList = configManager.getStri - Pastebin.com

You need this lib to run this script: [TFS 1.2] Modal Window Helper Lib

Nice release @Mkalo

I was in the process of testing it but I ran into this problem on the nginx part:

nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "stream" in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:87

Make sure you have nginx-full installed. The normal nginx doesnt comme with the stream directive enabled.

Did you solved this? Same here and I was installed nginx-full

Yes

What is the true function of this? would it be a tunel or just to mask the player's ip?

Hello @Mkalo

I have server in Europe, bought small VPS in US, installed there nginx, configured it to stream player packets to my gamesevrer port in EU with configuration you provided.

A.A.A.A - IP of EU server
B.B.B.B - IP of US proxy server
C.C.C.C - IP of Brazilian player

stream {
    server {
        listen 7172;
        proxy_pass A.A.A.A:7172;
    }
}

Here is example dump for one player from `tcptrack -r 5 -i eth0`

   Client             Server
C.C.C.C:49713     B.B.B.B:5061
B.B.B.B:56642     A.A.A.A:7172

And it works like a charm.

The problem is on EU server side all players have the same IP (B.B.B.B), so having a rule

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --syn --dport 7172 -m connlimit --connlimit-above 3 -j REJECT

I will cut out every 3+ player using my US proxy.

I was trying to pass player headers to my EU server in nginx configuration, for example by

stream {
    server {
        listen 7172;
        proxy_pass_request_headers on;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $remote_addr;
        proxy_pass A.A.A.A:5061;
#        proxy_pass_request_headers on;
    }
}

But none of the lines (even one by one) don't cooperate with `stream`. How can I pass player's IP through stream to my server?

Hello @MkaloBut none of the lines (even one by one) don't cooperate with `stream`. How can I pass player's IP through stream to my server?

Have your tried with:

proxy_bind $remote_addr transparent;

?

 

[kor]

Not yet, but I did now. My nginx version is 1.10.3 and it don't support `transparent` parameter (it's supported from 1.11). I was trying to make an upgrade following this tutorial How to Install Nginx Latest Version on Ubuntu 16.04 and Ubuntu 16.10 but for now I'm unable because an error "nginx : Depends: libssl1.0.0 (>= 1.0.2~beta3) but it is not installable". Sad, that latest nginx version at apt is only 1.10.3. I will try later to upgrade it and I will test again.

What version of nginx do you have? proxy_bind works for you with transparent parameter?

Sorry, I'm not using nginx proxy. Anyway, my server is also Debian and it's pretty old, thus nginx version available on it is 1.12.2.

I have following /etc/apt/sources.list:

# jessie-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://debian.mirrors.ovh.net/debian/ jessie-updates main
deb-src http://debian.mirrors.ovh.net/debian/ jessie-updates main
