I've been following these instructions from the wiki to setup a custom subdomain for my Valheim server. However, I don't use Cloudflare as my DNS provider as of now. My domain happens to be on Namecheap. I seem to have been able to set up the A and SRV records the same way. To me it looks like it's correctly done. The problem is that by the end of it, Valheim just isn't able to connect. I get the "Failed to Connect" message when I try to join IP in the Valheim launcher. Here's some redacted output from running dig for the SRV record on my domain: dig srv _valheim._tcp.valheim.mydomain.com ; <<>> DiG 9.10.6 <<>> srv _valheim._tcp.valheim.mydomain.com ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 45250 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 1232 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;_valheim._tcp.valheim.mydomain.com.
