host=localhost

I used the command line to create the eqemu user and specify gm status...here is only error in text i can find...its in world.exe

login server responded with fatal error: bad password...disabling reconnect...


any help would be great thanks carch
P.S> get same results using (localhost) or 127.0.0.1
and removed all the .coms from eqhost its late

This may not help, but try using a longer worldname in loginserver.ini.

Maybe something like "Carch's EQEmu" (without the quotes).. "server" will get added to the end.
