ok, delete it in there

Looks like you have a router. This is a common cause of 1017. You need to forward the EQEmu ports. Check under tutorials and howtos: The Big LAN Book.

As for EqAdmin errors.... look in here. I posted it somewhere in that topic.

Hehe, he is not getting 1017 errors anymore Nilar. He is getting:

Account Attempting to be created:TenabrousGM 0 
Error in CreateAccount query 'INSERT INTO account SET name='TenabrousGM', status 
=0, lsaccount_id=48767;' #1062: Duplicate entry 'TenabrousGM' for key 2 
Error adding local account for LS login: 'TenabrousGM', duplicate name? 
Bad/expired session key: ls#48767

Its an account error in the db, he needs to delete it and log in so that EQEmu can create the account. Then he can change status and stuff after.

Also..

Secondly:

Code:
worldaddress=68.3.182.184


needs to be:

Code:
worldaddress=192.168.1.101

This is wrong. Your worldaddress needs to be 68.3.182.184 (your external IP) otherwise people won't be able to connect to your server. 192.168.1.101 is your internal IP (local IP) which other people wont be able to connect to.

So...

under loginserver.ini

worldaddress=68.3.182.184

and boot5zones.bat

start zone . 68.3.182.184 7995 192.168.1.101

Just for some info the worldaddress is the World Server that is connecting to the loginservers. The first IP in boot5zones.bat is the IP that tells the zone servers where to connect to the world.exe at. The second IP is the database location (which is 192.168.1.101 for you)

I have it set up like I told him and it works fine, people connect to my server with no problems.


****EDIT****

There is a slight possibility I have them backwards cause I am at work, but I am almost 100% sure I have it set up that way. Anyway even if I am mistaken, it is a simple thing to change to get it switched

Hmmm...weird. I've always set it up the other way. It even says so in your guide that thats how you set it up. But I guess thats fine if it works. Only thing is have other people been able to connect?
