Les, I'mhaving the same exact problem, and I think I finally got passed it, but when you do, you will recieve another error that does the same thing. I hope you get it working man, nothing has worked for me, thanks all for helping guys but I guess ima have to try to figure it out on my own. I thought it was my firewall too, but I have enabled the ports on my router, shut my router firewall off, shut my computer windows firewall off, the works, still the same outcome. What I did to get passed that error was I got the administration tool, went into setup variables, then security, and check marked use old passwords, restarted my server, and then the World server still wouldent start, but it was a new error, which you can see on my thread. I hope that helps you a little, also is there an earlier version of EQ emu that runs for the old crappy EQ classic version? I dont want anything fancy, just an oridinary Everquest world that me and my friends can have fun with, but all I have is EQ trilogy, EQ classic, and EQ Titanium. So if there is a trilogy version or classic EQ emu thats easier to set up? I'd like too do that if anyone knows of it.
