So I did the tutorial and everything worked fine for lan. How can I port forward so everyone can join in my server?
 
I got it working, does anyone know how can I make my server show in the list ? The port i open was 2303
 
I think the issue might be that you need a series of ports open. Something like 2302-2305 and open both UDP and TCP. I think the game uses UDP but gamespy reporting uses TCP. Also check your server config and make sure you have it set to report to gamespy. Lastly, wait and hour or two it may solve itself. Gamespy isn't instant, it runs periodic updates if I'm not mistaken.
 
If you just start server and leave it be it may or may not take some time to get discovered (tested a few times, mostly it's visible form the start). If you connect to it trough LAN it will be visible to other players the moment you connect ;)
