Question Assigning proxy and new local address and port, client still showing public IP as my own.

[Argyl]

So just trying to figure out if I'm dumb or if something is up. I'm updating my bot manager and since update doesn't use steam-client anymore I can't use .bind() which was working. See my attached image. Basically client is still returning my own localhost IP. Not the proxy one I'm setting.

Are you up to date?

So that was part of the issue. But now its not taking my proxies. Was connecting and logging in before and I tested them to make sure they are good to go.

{
  "message": "bind EADDRNOTAVAIL 173.208.103.160:8800",
  "stack": "Error: bind EADDRNOTAVAIL 173.208.103.160:8800\n    at internalConnect (net.js:824:18)\n    at defaultTriggerAsyncIdScope (internal/async_hooks.js:299:19)\n    at defaultTriggerAsyncIdScope (net.js:948
:9)\n    at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/next_tick.js:74:9)",
  "errno": "EADDRNOTAVAIL",
  "code": "EADDRNOTAVAIL",
  "syscall": "bind",
  "address": "173.208.103.160",
  "port": 8800
}

That error crashes the process as well.

 

Any ideas?

In my case, when I have updated steam-user to 4.2.0 or later, proxy setted by setHttpProxy stopped working fine, but when I rolled back to 3.21.1 it worked fine! But I need new version with proxy!

173.208.103.160 is not an IP address assigned to any interface on your system. Is that a proxy IP? If so, just use the proxy option and don't set localAddress.

 

In my case, when I have updated steam-user to 4.2.0 or later, proxy setted by setHttpProxy stopped working fine, but when I rolled back to 3.21.1 it worked fine! But I need new version with proxy!

 

Please read the v4 release notes.
