Suggestion. This part will confuse pepole. Reword like talking to a child. (only partially jokeing):

Quote:
b) Grant your LAN IP address access to your EQ Database. IE: GRANT ALL ON *.* to computername@192.168.0.lastdigitoflanip IDENTIFIED BY 'yourpassword';
Also change computer name to be localhost, or 127.0.0.1. As I'm guessing your really don't wana go down the road of.. But I name my puter Bob.. Because It has a sticker on it that says Bob!! Why is that wrong?

d) Create and source your database.
Its simple to you... its simple to me.. but at one point I didn't know how to do this either. Step it out full commands if you wana be thorough.

Quote:
a) Open up db.ini and change the address in there to your LAN IP address, save and exit.
But nothing in here says address? Whats this address you speak of? Can never be too specific in wrighting a step by step.

Open up /emu/db.ini. Change to ready
host=127.bla.bla
ect...
ect...
ect...

Oh crap.. I'm just too tired to continue... just throwing my ideas at you... Simply put.. good doc! But giving the reader too much credit... At the level you are generalizing some stuff.. the person reading it, AND knowing what you ment... Doesn't need the doc.
