Copy and paste your eqemu_config.xml and login config so we can look at it. REMOVE your passwords first though.
xml file... as it is now.. I will highlight changes I have tried..
Also, am using underfoot client.. It just SEEMS like a firewall issue, but when I went in a checked the firewall it pops up a thing saying "windows firewall cannot run because the windows firewall/ICS service is not running. To use windows firewall you must start the windows firewall/ICS service...."
So I guess I'm going on the assumption that the firewall wouldnt be causing issues..
it's a server 2003 VPS.. If I hadnt had a server running on my local LAN I would think maybe it was something in the setup, but I've used the eqemuloginserver on the local LAN.
