Login seemed to work fine. BTW, I edited my existing file from my EQLive folder.

If you have trouble creating your own file, try using the DOS editor instead of notepad. The client might be picky about the file's carriage returns.

I was able to successfully create a character on the Greenleaf server and run around and fight. There were a few issues I encountered when I actually got in, but I think they are related to packets changing and just need another sniff from live.

I saw all pre-DR4 servers on my selection screen, but didn't try to connect to anything but DR4. Some of the people who say they got in but can't connect or create characters, make sure you pay attention to the version number of the server you're connecting to. Connect to *only* a DR4 server under the new login client. Suggestion to Lethal: Only advertise DR4 and newer servers to the client if they're connecting with the new login client, and only advertise DR3 and earlier servers if they're connecting with the old login client. Might cut down on the "I can't connect to xxxxx server" posts.

BTW, Scorpius2k's server showed a population of negative 617-something-million users on the server select :
