Ok,

so the situation is that:
1) you may connect to the server inside NetBeans, so it shows you a map
2) the bot can't connect

My guesses are:
1) it is a firewall problem (have you allowed anybody to connect to UT2004.exe process ?)
2) some other process may block port 3000

Try this:
1) check the console window of the server, the last two lines after the start should be:
BotServerPort: 3000 ControlServerPort: 3001 ObservingServerPort: 3002
START MATCH

2) if BotServerPort is 3000 than you may check it using telnet, go to the command line (Start menu -> start -> cmd) and try:

type: telnet localhost 3000

then you should see a line:

Connecting to localhost

then it disappears and the GameBots2004 should greet you with line

HELLO_BOT

type: READY

and GB2004 will send you a hell lot of info about the environment

If this fails (i.e., the telnet won't connect or the line does not appear), than the server didn't start properly.

... btw ... if you do not have telnet, you may added easily to the OS, follow the instructions here: http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/1793/vista_install_telnet_client/

--------------------------------

Have you succeeded? Does the GameBots2004 greet you?

Best,
Jimmy
