Installing a server on Debian Linux (trying)

[Xelaan]

Hi,

Sorry if some of this has been addressed elsewhere, I have search around the forums and didn't see what I was looking for. I am (trying) building a EQEmulator server on debian linux. I am only using this as a server no client running on it.

I am installing EQEmu on Debian (I understand that is the preferred OS for support around here) . I am following the Wiki for Debian install. The switch to SVN seems to have happened after the guide was written so I sort of fell into the wind during my install. I installed the source from the SVN and complied it. I created the symbolic links to the needed files in my server directory. I have MySQL installed. I downloaded the peq database using SVN and the peq quests using SVN. I loaded the database into MySQL.

I copied the quests into my eqemu server directory.

I am lost with maps is there an SVN for those? I have found a number of links and I am not sure which one is the current versions. Once I get them do I simply copy them into the maps directory under EqEmu?

I know i need to modify my eqemu_config.xml file. If I wanted to create a private server (for the moment) do i simply change the short and long names and the ip addresses? (I would like the server accessible from both inside and outside my network (I have set the port forwarding on my router to this server).

Finally, how do I start the server so clients can connect, create accounts, and play. Are the three scripts in the Debian Wiki the correct way to run things these days?

I have read about Minilogin, I assume I will need to install and run this to connect clients as well but the Wiki didn't mention it so i was not certain.

Any help is appreciated, and again sorry if I am duplicating questions.

Jim
