The new amazon web server instance did it... really fast.
Could set up a public login server as needed.
- Downloaded the eqemu-linux-admin from Akkadius but I dont know how to use the CLI to start the process so i can use the webadmin... another simple issue to most~
- Login to server 1st time results in a long wait time, then crash back to login screen... probably didn't set things up right, but hey... eqhost.txt and patchme working as intended
- Customizing server play will take the rest of the project time, thanks for EQEmu providing ALL this information for free.
Install went according to the instructions 
https://docs.eqemu.io/server/categor...allation-linux
 
 
My current eqemu_config.json --- probably needs work
 
login.json -- seems ok~
 
All in all, really happy that the instructions worked... which means, everyone could do it too! Thanks EQEmu Team!
