server making

[2yu556]

im confuzzled (thats a fun word isnt it)
i cant make a server (well i can its just no body can join)
i have only tried one thing so far and that was turning off firewall
when firewall is on server is grey and ping is dead
when firewall is off the server is completely invisible
(i checked on my friends computer and my computer)
what do i need to do to make a server without forwarding ports
(my dad says im not alloud to)

The ONLY way you can host a game on the internet is to forward your ports. If your dad says you can't, there is no other way.

Tell your dad that forwarding your ports doesn't open up your firewall, and doesn't have any risks. Badspot has told a few people this directly.

Opening ports have their own risks but it is something that will hardly affect your computer. Trust me, if your computer gets infected, it was a virus. Not a hacker.
