Login Server - Credentials always invalid

[Vincire]

I'm having some issues with the EQEMULoginServer. It seems that when I try to connect via the EQ Client, the credentials always come back as invalid.

Upon looking at the logged activity, the loginserver successfully pulls my account information via the select statement and pulls the AccountName and a hash ID. However, the client itself returns an invalid credential error....

Any ideas? I am using the Steam underfoot client.

Make sure that the accounts you create for the login server are not using a plain text password. If you are manually adding the accounts through a GUI like Navicat, it won't hash the password like it needs to.

Okay. That's my problem then. How should I properly be adding the passwords?

ah I see. I didn't use the function

sha('password')

Thanks!
