Is there seperate linux source i'm not seeing? Would it be hard to modify to run on OSX?
EQ on Mac has different Client->Server communication so it would probably have to be a completly different emulator. Or did you mean just the server for win comps?
Just the server. I know the client would not work (although I found a thread on another forum that mentions they got EQ running in linux without Wine, and will be working on getting it to work on OSX next).

Since the server runs on linux, i assumed it would be possible to compile it for OSX with little difficulty. Anyone have any input?
Mac OSX is based over FreeBSD. You should do a search upon this .
