Setting up on an isolated network
Hi,
I have a few questions about setting up an EQemu server (and more generally everquest) on an isolated network that I havent been able to resolve. If someone could take the time to read through this and maybe help out, Id really appreciate it.
I run a whole bunch of games servers on a university internal network. Access out of the network is restricted to only HTTP and FTP traffic.
Firstly can someone confirm that Im understanding whats going on with EQemu in that I will need both the world/zone server and a local minilogin server (and associated DB etc.), but nothing beyond that? Secondly could someone advise me on how EQ patches itself. I assume it uses some sort of SoE autoupdate jiggerpokery, but will that work on our network given the restrictions above? <Question removed to stay in line with forum regs. >
Any ideas or suggestions (or even a move to a more suitable board I realize its vaguely OT for here but cant see anywhere else more appropriate) would be really useful.
Luke
