Default A bit of help for a noobie

Hi, could use a bit of help. I'm total noob to eqemu and would love to play a bit on local server. I got server files and was able to complete the config and run it. Now I do have few old eq install games on my backup drive. I did try to use those to connect and after changing eqhost file to my local setup, I get daybreak login screen asking for user/password. Now I have no idea which one it's asking for. Is this my real daybreak account (my is a bit older from SOE times) or do I specify something in the config of eqemu? Not sure. I'm not 100% sure my client would work either so if anyone is able to point me to where I can buy an older client. I may have my EQ CDs in one of my boxes, but I think those are probably too old. There are also posts about modifying db.ini which I don't seem to have in my eq client folder. If there is a post for all these questions I can refer to that would be great. Appreciated!

Update: was able to locate EQ plat with all 5 disks. Install and changed host now I simply get connecting window from patching process and it does not go anywhere. Don't see any errors or even attempts to connect to my local server that's running. Any ideas?
