Hey guys, I'm trying to figure out how to set up a new server on new AA assist. We've been using old assist for a long time, but it is not working now.
We've already downloaded server manager, we set up the server, but we can't join it. 
It says 'no record of this Game Master Server on the Assist Master Server. Cannot Authorise...etc

Well maybe you should set up your server when sober then?

I'm not trying to tell you how to do your stuff, but I find that people are easier to help when both parties are sober.
And if this wasn't your first time here you'd know most of my posts are not pointless (granted, you are right, this one kind of was).

I have tried to run a server myself with Assist SM, but I always ran into problems, but I'm pretty sure it was to do with closed ports on my end.

I'm pretty sure there are already numerous threads on setting up servers with Assist Server Manager. Have you tried anything that's already been suggested?

And you said you've been using Assist for a long time, does that mean Assist client or does it include the server? It's hard to understand (for me at least) from your initial post whether or not this was your first try at a server with Assist.

All in all the more information you can provide the easier it is for people to help you. Such information includes, but is not limited to, your OS, whether or not you've opened the correct ports (there's a topic about that somewhere around the forums) and whether or not you've added an exception in the firewall.

Additionally, I've seen Merlin write a lot about server stuff and he always mentions that you have to start the server when Assist client is not running,

Also, and I'm not sure about this, but there might be a problem with you joining your own server, did someone else also try to join it?

This one should contain the ports and IPs you need to have open:
