First things first, I have to ask some dumb questions...
You are trying to set up a Halo PC Dedicated server, yes? I'm going to go with that... You must've already downloaded the DS .exe, but did you download the map pack that's specifically for the server? Some people miss that detail...
Once you've installed the DS and added the maps, I presume you updated to v1.06? Silly, but I have to ask. Then change the ports on your router. Once you've done that, start Halo PC, go to 'Settings', 'Network' and change the ports on that aswell.
That should be just about it. Sometimes the Gamespy network is a bit wierd and won't even SHOW your server! Annoying though it is, the only thing you can do if everything else is correct is continue trying... Some times I haven't been able to get my server going properly for a couple of days... The thing is, I know it's not my setup because it usually works a treat...
Let me know how you get on...
