[Subzeroevil]

ok i have a problem with me trying to log on my eq server i get A Timeout has occurred or somthing like that i tryed turn off firewalls and other stuff.

my server is on my server pc and and am playing on the same LAN do i need to put on minilogin on? then i also want people to be able to play out side of my lan with me.

I know my server works some people connected to it all ready from eqemulator.net but i can't so what do i do anything will help.

eqhost.txt file


[LoginServer]
Host=subzeroserver.game-host.org:5998

LOL, First off don't publish your IP to the public and people wont connect. Second, did you put the IP of your game pc into the account section of your database? Oh and if people are connecting from eqemulator then you have got the wrong setup in your EQEMU_CONFIG file.

[Subzeroevil]

lol your right :) i will not put my ip address up ok tryed what you put but samething. i will give my config file

<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>subzero</shortname>
<longname>whatever</longname>

<!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. -->
<!--<address>Subzeroserver.game-host.org</address>-->
<!--<localaddress>127.0.0.1</localaddress>-->

<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>eqemulator.net</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
</loginserver>

<!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world -->
<key>some long random string</key>

<!-- Enable and set the port for the HTTP service. -->
<http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />
</world>

<!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini. -->
<database>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>r**********</username>
<password>*********<Password>
<db>*******</db>
</database>
</server>

Are you trying to use minilogin or do you want to connect to the eqemulogin?

[Subzeroevil]

ok
i want to logon to anything that would let me connect and people on the internet.

if minilogin would do that it would be great but i read somewhere its for LAN's my network only not internet.

what ever works.

thanks Subzero

Ok then just change the host in your eqhost.txt from this

[LoginServer]
Host=subzeroserver.game-host.org:5998


to this

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998
