As-is is fine too!
There are ways to keep others out, such as locking your server in your config file and giving people that you want in a high enough status to bypass the lock.
I haven't played with that feature..but, there are posts about it.
Downtime for the eqemu public login server is fairly low.
Host computer updates and occasional bouts of DDoS'ing are about all I've seen in the last 3 1/2 years.
EDIT: Though your computer and the eqemu public login server may be up and working, it's possible to have problems with your ISP or other 'backbone' computers.
You can always play on the public login server until you become more comfortable with the administrative aspect and then decide if you want to go with a private
login server later on.
If you plan on running a LAN-only server, I (personally) highly recommend a private login server..but, it is not necessary..and, again, can wait until you're
comfortable in setting one up.
