    Ok this is what I did and what happened immediately next:

    1) I created succesfully the "server.cfg" file which is correctly read by "arma3server.exe", what I did is
    Ctrl C/Crtl V this to a new file changing some lines...
    This is from where I took the file: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/server.cfg

    2) I created a shortcut pointing the "arma3server.exe" adding all the mods (-mod=@ bla bla) and the
    confing (-config=bli bli blo blu)

    3) Server is working nicely and all players ( I tried with 3 differents Clients) can connect and play.

    4) I tried succesfully to connect as administrator using the password I've setted up in the "server.cfg"
    tipying "#login myPassword" in the chat.

    5) I have created an ALiVE mission with all the modules setted as "Persistent".

    6) The mission run nicely and all players can connect and play.

    7) All players can disconnect sing the ALiVE menu and the game shows the write " Player progress saved"

    8) I opened a new account on WarRoom and I've setted up a new server tiping 100% correctly this:

    - Server name= The exactly server name showed in the "server.cfg" as
    well in the Arma 3 Server Browser list, without any other "" or ''.

    - Hostname= The exactly server name I read tipying "hotsname" in the
    Command Prompt, without any other "" or ''.

    - IP Address= The IP address of my router (obvioulsy not my LAN address) updated to the new one
    cause mine is Dynamic.

    - I've downloaded and placed the file "alive.cfg" showed in the "Server setup instruction" (from the war
    room site) in my Arma 3 root directory (also i tried placing it in the AppData/local/blabla).
    Obvioulsy I unlocked the file before placing it.

    - As an Admin I can click on "Server Save&Exit", when I do first I see players disconnecting showing
    the write "Player Progess Saved", then I see the ALiVE console popping up and writing things making
    me thinking that is saving, before it close I can read like "ALIVE DATA SYS ERROR".

    The only thing that I did not was to add a new line like "-config=alive.cfg", do I have to?

    Because rigth now War Room is blind on my server....

    Thanks very much

    Hi again, I followed the whole instructions for connecting my Dedicated Server to the War Room.
    Note that I'm hosting a dedicated server from the same pc that I use to connect to it as a client.

    All go fine but I don't understand HOW TO close the server saving the data...
    I simply close the server console window..

    Also I didn't manage to get my server connected to the war room but this is a thing that I'll manage alone :)

    Hi all, it's been a while ( a long while) since I started use you mod, now I started to play that with friends..
    It's like a week that I search on the Web and here to get able to use ALiVE Persistance but I really don't understand something..

    I've setted Persistence "ON" in all the ALiVE module in my Mission, then I start with a locale server and play with friends, all go fine.
    When players stops use to exit the game through the ALiVE menu "Player Save & Exit" and when I turn off the server I click on "Server Save & Exit".
    ---I'm not using a "Dedicated Server", I just host from the Game---

    No error messages or any other bad things seems to pop up.

    But HOW TO restart the game? Do I have just to Host the Same mission?
    If I do, the time/position of players is resetted so I think it's not working..

    How can I manage this to work without a Dedicated Server/WarRoom Account?
    Thanks
