Private Login Config Samples [OUTDATED]

[GRUMPY]

This thread is for total newbies, who are having difficulty with their private login configuration.
This is assuming you have already installed the login server files. This is only regarding the edit
of config files for the login.

These are ONLY samples. You would have to edit the text in yellow to reflect on your server
configuration, if you plan on copying and pasting this to use. These samples are for a local
server only. (Your EQ server and game client are on the same computer) If you are using
a LAN server, you would need to edit the IP's to be setup for that.

First, the main config file, eqemu_config.json (Found in your main server folder)
Note: The loginserver accountname and password, as well as the longname and shortname
has to match what you have in the login tables in the database. that accountname and
password is NOT the one you use for your client. It's what the world and loginserver use
to connect to each other. It's not necessarily needed, but it's my preference.
If you choose not to have it in place, you will see a message "Server bla bla attempted to
login, ...bla bla..but unregistered servers are allowed"

CAUTION : If you edit anything, other than the yellow text references in these files .....you're on your own :P

                    "password" : "password",
                    "port" : "5998"
               },
               "longname" : "PEQ Server",
               "shortname" : "peqserver",
               "tcp" : {
                    "ip" : "127.0.0.1",
                    "port" : "9000",
                    "telnet" : "disable"
               }
          },
          "zones" : {
               "defaultstatus" : "0",
               "ports" : {
                    "high" : "7500",
                    "low" : "7100"
               }
          }
     }
}

Second, the login.ini file : (also found in your main server folder)

[database]
host = 127.0.0.1
port = 3306
db = peq
user = user
password = password
subsystem = MySQL

[options]
unregistered_allowed = TRUE
reject_duplicate_servers = FALSE
trace = TRUE
world_trace = FALSE
dump_packets_in = FALSE
dump_packets_out = FALSE
listen_port = 5998
local_network = 127.0.0.
auto_create_accounts = TRUE

[security]
plugin = EQEmuAuthCrypto
mode = 5

[Titanium]
port = 5998
opcodes = login_opcodes.conf

[SoD]
port = 5999
opcodes = login_opcodes_sod.conf

[schema]
account_table = tblLoginServerAccounts
world_registration_table = tblWorldServerRegistration
world_admin_registration_table = tblServerAdminRegistration
world_server_type_table = tblServerListType

Third, you need to edit the eqhost.txt file in your Everquest client. That "5998"
would need to be changed to 5999 for game clients SoD and up. DO NOT change
these numbers in the server config files.

[LoginServer]

Host=127.0.0.1:5998

Thanks for that GRUMPY!


People always want to change that port number in the client or config files to something that won't work.

The reason port 5999 is used for SoD+ is that the SoF and SoD clients both use the same initial opcodes to login.

So, to identify them properly, a new port was added for SoD and newer clients have just been added to that.

You're welcome. People always want to fix, what's not broken, haha
