there are two ways to set up the emu server:

1. minilogin
private, no Internet access. That's what the minilogin is used for. the login is eqemu/eqemu (security is not a problem because you are not going to the Net).

There is a loginserver.ini that needs to point to your mini with:
loginsever=localhost
worldname=<whatever you want>
worldaddress=<the ip of your world server usually 127.0.0.1 for single system, and 192.XXX or whatever for multiple systems>

account, password can be blank

You also have to go to your EQemu client directory (where you have copied over your EQ files) and change host.txt to point to the location of your miniserver.

It's possible to have more than one person in a private net but they all have to have access to that net. This means that you have multiple machines on the net. If you don't have such a set up, then it is not what you want.

2. gotfrags login
Allows multiple logins to your server through the Internet.
In this case you do not run minilogin. You change your loginserver (if it is not already setup) to point to gotfrags:
loginserver=eqlogin.gotfrags.com
worldname=<whatever you want>
worldaddress=<address of your world server, usuallyl 127.0.0.1>

Also make sure that your eqhost.txt points to gotfrags:
"eqlogin.gotfrags.com:5999"

Finally have all your users go to gotfrags and create an account, including yourself (the address is in the client guide on this board). Use that account name/password to login into gotfrags and select your server (or any other server). Same for your users.
