You should use the same ingame patch settings that you use for single-player. Eg configure patches->economy->starting date. When you start the server after this, all player joined will use your settings.

Best is not to touch openttd.cfg...since it could produce weird results if you are not careful.

Hi, just had the great first multiplayer as server. We had much problems with a firewall, and we only had success after opening all ports.
I thought just port 3979 must be open. is there an other port???
