Server List Problem

[Feror`]

Hey all,
I have a problem... seems simple, but I cant figure it out. To start off, everything is running correctly... world.exe is fine, so is boot5zones.exe. The only problem I have is that I cant see my server on the server list. I tried searching for a topic like this, but nothing has helped, anyone have ideas? :\

Post your world.exe and zone.exe outputs. Also post the contents of your loginserver.ini, boot5zones.bat, db.ini, and eqhost.txt files....

See anything in there that I could change to make it connect to the LS?[/code]

Do you have a firewall running? Do you have ports forwarded in your router (assuming you have one)?

[Feror`]

I set it on DMZ for the time being... I know thats risky.

[samandhi]

Well, you will STILL need to open the correct ports... If you have software running a firewall, it is a matter of opening the software and telling it that whenever you run world.exe and zone.exe you want to have those ports it uses open.. Usually your router has a built in firewall also, that you may need to either disable or open ports for... This is done through your browser (as you know since you put your pc on DMZ)...

Also, if you are using Windows XP, make sure the built in crappy firewall is disabled... go to start>control panel>network connections...Right click on your connection, click properties, then choose the advanced tab at the top of that window... Make sure "protect my computer,,,, blah blah" is unchecked...

[LoginServer] block not found in './LoginServer.ini'.

That's the problem. Do you have LoginServer.ini in the same directory as World/Zone.exe? Is there a space after the "]"? If so, delete it and reboot then try.

[samandhi]

[LoginServer] block not found in './LoginServer.ini'. DOH,,, missed that.... good call..:)

Heh, we all miss things at times. Even people with 4 butts ;)
