Default Thanks for the update

Thanks for the update Speedz. It looks like it might be time for an updated Windows server installation guide. I've started working on one, but until I can successfully build and run one I'll hold off on publishing it! There are a number of factors involved in getting the server up and running and unfortunately they're not all in the one place. Hopefully when I'm done it will be a one stop shop for server installation complete with screen shots.
From what I can gather the latest versions of Perl and MySQL are not fully compatible with the server and DB files. I also learned by trial and error about patching in the latest .sql files from the utils directory none of the present guides have these things in them. This is not a criticism of the great job others have done but I'd like to build and improve on what has been developed before.
Right now I just wish I could resolve the connection problem when trying to enter the world from the character selection screen on a LAN PC!
