for mini login you still need to use the liginserver<sp?>.ini file it does not read the new .xml config file yet.

If that doesn't work check out the wiki.

You also may wish to look into the DRP Serverpack for 0.6.6 that Cavedude has just finished putting together. You can find it at http://eqemu.sesmar.net

All thanks go to Cavedude on this one. All I have been doing lately is maintaining the website, and playing Oblivion too much. Hopefully I will get off my ass soon and start working on my editor again to finish up some of the great ideas I have been working on.

Running the website is a great help so you deserve as much thanks as I do. It looks great and who else is going to host the server pack? Also, thanks goes out to Solid11, he writes up the pdf for every build. Adobe products and I don't mix so his help is also greatly appreciated.
