This is exactly how to make a Public server install and work.
1.) First Install MySQL - I use 4.0.26 Works Perfectly
2.) Next Install ActivePerl - I use ActivePerl-5.8.2.808
3.) Install DRP's installer of EQEmu, make sure you set the path to your EQ Folder,MySQL, and Perl Install exactly right or it will not work. After that is done, you should not have to change anything at all except your servers long and short name. ( Long Name is what people will see on the server select screen. Short name is what it will name peoples .ini files when they create a char on your server. )
4.) Extract the map files into your eqemu maps folder. Without these detrimental spells and mob pathing will not work.
Additional steps that may or may not be needed. This is only if you are connecting from behind a router and yourself or others are unable to connect.( I have to do this myself to make my server work. )
