So Close !!!!
Ok I'm getting really close to getting my server working now thanks to some kind peeps on here. One problem is my rounter.
1. I have a linksys wireless and I'm confused on which IP to use in place of my localhost. The 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.100 or does it matter?
2. Do any other files affect the emu working besides the .DLL and the eqgame.exe? Like any .ini files?
3. Using minilogin, on the loginserver.ini and boot5 files, should I use the 192.168.1.1 in place of localhost or 127.0.0.1?
Reason I'm asking these is I've installed and reinstall honestly atleast 10 times now using exactly spikes and/or malingnus' walkthough on 6.0 DR2 setup. I have gotten closer now than ever by actually seeing my server in the server setup but I get the common 1017 error like many others. Which makes be believe my IPs are screwed up somewhere. I get no errors with minilogon, world.exe, or boot5 start up. I'm really close and hope this will be a simple replace IP problem. Thanks.
Running WinXP and minilogon here is my files:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
### --- This file tells world.exe what loginserver to connect to.
### --- Leave the account and password field BLANK.
### --- Public Login is un-supported as is LAN playing. We reccomend using the EQEmu.net Loginserver ALWAYS.
### --- NOTE: Starting 6-1-2002, you can no longer use the word "Server" in worldname.
### --- NOTE2: the word "Server" is added to each server automaticly.
