I know that this is a problem that is commonly dealt with and that port forwarding and firewalls are usually the cause, but I have forwarded every port and added every exception that I can think of, and a friend of mine that is helping me test still cannot connect. I, of course, have no issues since it is localhost. Would anyone care to look passed the redundancies of this post and give me a hand? =P

I have forwarded and added exceptions for 7000-7100, 9000, 3306, and 7778 still with no luck. I am using Akka's repack with the only change to the eqemu_config being the short and long names.

The friend that I have testing the connection for me can connect to The Grand Creation, that is why I feel it is something on my end.

UPDATE:: The tester's account has yet to be created in the database at all, so I would assume this means it is a networking issue with a mismatch and/or closed IP or port. I just can't seem to diagnose it myself.

The server is "B E H O L D" If anyone else would like to test the connection, feel free.

Could the port here be incorrect, as I was forwarding "5999" and not "5998"?

As I said before, I have no changed anything in the .xml other than the names.

You can always post your config file (with login info redacted.)

I can't remember my public server login info atm, or I would test it here.

Maybe someone else will post their login attempt success :)

I take it that my config looks fine to you?

Yes, Akkadius's repack is usually pretty straight-forward.

I'm willing to point the issue at your friend's config/connection..but, I'd like to hear from others first. (He may have something running that is locking a
needed port or his ISP may be blocking udp packets in a certain range.)

Wouldn't it be odd for that to happen when he can connect to other servers?
