You're connecting through the eqemulator.net login servers? What ports/port range have you forwarded for the zone server(s)?

Oh. Were you able to play at all after sourcing those files? I read some posts from your other thread and it sounded like you got it working.

I am able to log into the server from the computer actually running the server, after sourcing the files, but I cannot get my second computer to connect to the server - regardless of whether I am logged in on my main computer or not

Firewall on second computer is also disabled, and that computer can connect to other servers such as Project 99 with no problem

Ah, I see. Well, I don't have access to EQEmu to test anything, but here's some advice:

Don't blindly copy KinglyKrab's (or anyone else's) config files. He had some numeric IP for the login server that differs from that of the main eqemulator.net address.

If you have reverted back to your old config, make sure that only one <zone> section is present.

Check that your router port forwarding rules match the port range you've chosen in the remaining <zone> section of the config file.

Nevermind, that IP was login.eqemulator.net.
My mistake

Does that port forwarding look correct?

Seems like maybe it's an issue with the second account itself, or a corrupted character or something. I'm unable to log onto the server with that account on my computer itself

Tried another account and it's doing the same thing. The only account it will let me into the game with is my 250 permission GM account

Successfully logged onto the server from my second computer, using my GM account... very interesting....... seems like possibly a breakthrough in solving this, I just don't know what it MEANS

There are unnecessary ports being forwarded (5998/5999 are for the login server, yet you are using the official EQEmu login server; there is also that extra zone port range), but it should nevertheless work for your configuration.

Ah, that makes more sense. After you've investigated that problem a bit more, just post your results/questions here in the same thread and I'm sure somebody will eventually help.

I set the permissions to 250 on my second account to see if it was related to account status, and still cannot log in any account other than my main GM account - which I can log into from both computers.

Zerjz3- "I replaced mine with yours and changed the DB name and password to reflect mine, and now the server does not show up in the server list when I launch it"

His account is set as a private server

<loginserver>
<host>66.55.145.2</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account>XXXXXXXXX</account>
<password>XXXXXXXXXX</password>

As opposed to the eqemu server

<loginserver>
<host>login.eqemulator.net</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
