1017 Error...I'm about to give up

[n00blet]

I have tried everything. And by everything I mean I have shutdown my firewalls, made my dns the worldaddress...and added it to my hosts file in that folder windows\sys32\drivers\etc. I have tried disconnecting my comp from the router and plugging it straight into the wall. I have reinstalled all the server stuff for windows (6.0 server). I have read the tutorial by Spike many times making sure I follow everything (not minilogin related). I have even asked ppl that have their own servers up and I've read about every post out there. What am I to do!?!?!?

I can log onto others servers just fine so I'm guessing its my fault why I can't get on my own. 1017 Error kills me rawr . If you have any kind of solution for me please tell me. Peace

A few qestions:

What do you mean by:

made my dns the worldaddress

world address?

What kinda of internet do you have? ADSL or cable?
This really doesnt matter Becuase ADSL uses high frequencys and a 56k modem will only connect using the low high frequencys.

If you havea cable modem i have no idea how you were able to connect it to the wall and the PC(cable uses a co-ax cable)

If you use a router did you the forward all of the ports it need to connect on.


sence you said you were able to connect to other people's servers but you were not able to connect to your server that tells me that it could be your router.

Also does you server say locked or up?
If it says locked the IPs arent set right .

Theres really alot it could and could not be to fix this it coud be really easy or hard. Or If you give the wrong info it could mess it more.

take some screen shots of your world.exe when you try connect to it. See what error pops up.,

This is where alittle more info would help I would be able to tell you whats wrong with it. amd not try to secant guess it.

This is what it says before I logon to the server and once I try to play everquest on this server it gives me the 1017 error.

The server is showing as up.
