I've done a lot of playing around with the emu in the past couple of days. I've installed it onto 2 different windows machines and 1 linux machine, all the way from having to install and config mysql.
Anyway, I'm not completely stupid.. just feeling a bit dumbish right now. On to my issue and the plea for help:
I have read and tried the NAT Understood thread listed below.
I have EQEmu 0.3.11 running on my linux machine right now. (The Dominare Server) and my friends are able to connect and play without any problems.
I'm stuck with only 1 ip address and unable to connect from within the LAN, just like described in other threads.
I have edited my windows machine (192.168.1.2) host file to read: 192.168.1.1 dominare.homelinux.com, I can ping it from windows and it points to 192.168.1.1 which is the internal ip of my Linux box.
My LoginServer.ini reads dominare.homelinux.com as the worldaddress, and is using the eqemu login servers.
I can run eqw to connect to the login server. I see my server, I see a number of my friends playing on my server, and I get the boot trying to connect to my server to enter the game.
I started the server by running the eqemud startup script, and plugged dominare.homelinux.net in at the top for my public ip.
What else should I try? I'd greatly appreciate any info, even though its been asked and answered before... I'm just frustrated because this wont go. :( Thanks in advance for any info you can manage...
