I know environmental path length has been an issue for us in the past .. not sure if that's the issue here.

Have you installed other things on this computer that may have caused the path length to be exceeded?

Or, maybe, another program updated something the eqemu server is using? (not likely...)

The only other thing I can think of is a windows update causing havoc - especially if you haven't changed anything server-wise.
