LAN Login Issues

[JuJu142]

So I'm trying to allow other computers on the LAN to connect to the local server. I can log in to the game using the PC that the server is running on, but not any others on the network. Using minilogin, I have set up accounts for the other PC's and their IP addresses.

On the non-server machines, I can log in, and see the server. Server machine see's the login and everything looks just the same as I was logging in from the server machine. When I click play, I go to a black screen, then eventually back out to the login screen.

It seems like it is loosing connection to the server when I hit play. config files are set to 127.0.0.1. I've tried changing this to the generic LAN IP, but then I can not launch the server. Any suggestions?

Ok so after trying to re-create what happens on the non-server machine...on the server machine....no matter what login information I use I go to the same account. Placing "192.168.1.4" (server-machine IP) into the server machine eqhost.txt file it recreates the issue I'm having on the non-server machine. It recognizes the connection, but when I hit play, world.exe doesn't see it. I feel like this is something simple, but I cant seem to narrow it down.

must use a router so each computer has a different ip address or goto control pannel network and config a unique ip address for each computer.
you'll have to open up firewall or open up port setting to pass through the firewall

Only If using Winxp:
Goto Network Connection Properties
You'll Be at General
Click on Advanced
Click Settings
Leave Firewall ON
Click Exceptions
Click Add Port
Click Change scope
Any Computer [Including those on the Internet]
Click Ok
Name: EqEmuloginServer or minilogin
Port number: 5999 UDP
Click Ok
Click Add Port
Click Change scope
Any Computer [Including those on the Internet]
Click Ok
Name: EqEmuloginServer or minilogin
Port number: 5998 UDP
Click Ok
That should now allow other computers
on your local network to connect to your server.

If that does not work try this
Click on url and follow Vales guide http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=29043 and Good Luck!

Start at Step # 1 - #3 if you have not downloaded the server files.

Just a Note: if you already donwloaded the server files under trunk\EQEmuServer\EQEmuLoginServer\login_util directory is the files you need for your sql server database.
Start at Step # 9: - #18

no internet connection required

If using EQEmuLoginServer.exe and set server up as public

This is my eqemu_config
