I'm trying to host a dedicated server here in my HomeLab. The server is running and showing as Online (Yes) at:
https:// ismygameserver.online/battlefield1942/187.75.65.140:14567

However, I can't find it in the game's multiplayer menu. I searched the forum and found that I need to change the master server in the hosts file to:

143.176.207.225 master.gamespy.com
143.176.207.225 master.bf1942.sk

I made the changes on my PC and the VM, but it still doesn't appear. Do you know if the IPs remain the same? Or do I need to make some other configuration changes? Or any clues as to what the problem might be?

Server running on a WIN11 VM,

Battlefield 1942 Dedicated Server v1.61
BF1942 (Ver: Tue, 27 Aug 2013 16:42:15 - tuia@SiMPLE)

Ports configured in the FW:
14567
14690
15667
22000
23000
