Servers available to EVERYONE idea....

Ok the way its set up now, you cant set up a server onto the public login but have someone on your network connect to it. Why? because they're trying to connect to the ip address that leads outside. In order for network users to connect to this box they have to connect by the network ip. So if it was coded in to where the server attempts "ip1" and if "ip1" fails it'll try "ip2" which would be set in the config files by the administrator. Ip1 would ideally be your internet ip address given to you by your isp while ip2 ideally would be your network ip address.

What you think?

EQ Live supports IP Masquerading, inclusion of such a feature in EqEmu would - in the long run - be desireable. I cannot imagine inclusion of such a feature would be easy to implement though :?

I was working on this for awhile, we had a couple of patches that would do it, but the code has changed alot since then... I'll see what I can do, but theres a simple internal LAN workaround documented to get you up and running..
