Need Some Help and Willing to Help others when I learn

[xeeman]

Hey guys and gals,

I finally decided to make my way over and setup an EMU after playing EQ for 3 years. FYI, I'm also the webmaster and do the "self installers" for the MySEQ Project (www.rexpage.com/myseq).

Anyway, I went through this tutorial and setup a server behind my router using DynDNS. I'm fwd'ing ports 5990 - 6000 and 9000-9100 to my server on my LAN. Those may be more than necessary but I didn't see a definitive post on the subject.

Thanks in advance,
Xeeman

Problems:
============
(1) I can see my server on the Server Select screen through EQ; however, when I try and create a character my world.exe crashes. I can post logs if necessary.

(2) After the setup do I need to populate the database with any other information? If so, where do I download this information?

(3) How do I manipulate characters? (ie create GM's etc)
