[fireclav]

does it have anything to do with that some people i see have hte eqemulator thing at the loginserver part. ex.

[LoginServer]
loginserver=127.0.0.1
loginserver2=newlogin1.eqemulator.net
loginport=5999
loginport2=5999
worldname=The Test World
worldaddress=127.0.0.1
locked=false
account=
password=

thats just an example of one that i found. i do not have that in mine is that ok???


also i cannot find my boot5zones.bat file do i have one or is that not with minilogin?

other then that to list the things ive tried with no success

Have all the proper ports forwarded, dmz setup on server, no ip, and other things ive read on this site. i have no idea why this is occuring but its getting anoying i would really like to find an answer for htis

That's from an older build I believe, so it won't work. So is boot5zones.bat.

Just use this.

emuconfig.xml

<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
        <world>
                <shortname>minilogin</shortname>
                <longname>My Minilogin</longname>
                
                <!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. -->
		<address>127.0.0.1</address>
		<localaddress>127.0.0.1</localaddress>
		
		<!-- Loginserver information.  -->
        <loginserver>
		<host>192.168.1.4</host>
		<port>5999</port>
		<account></account>
		<password></password>
        </loginserver>

                <!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world -->
                <key>some long random string</key>

                <!-- Enable and set the port for the HTTP service. -->
                <http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />
        </world>

                <!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini. -->
        <database>
                <host>127.0.0.1</host>
                <port>3306</port>
                <username>eq</username>
                <password>eq</password>
                <db>eq</db>
        </database>
</server>

loginserver.ini

###Your current configuration is as follows:

loginserver.ini:
[LoginServer]
loginserver=192.168.1.4
loginport=5999
worldname=My Minilogin
worldaddress=127.0.0.1
locked=false
account=
password=

[WorldServer]
Defaultstatus=
Unavailzone=
[ChatChannelServer]

worldshortname=
chataddress=
chatport=

[LoginConfig]
ServerMode=Minilogin
ServerPort=5999

If this doesn't work, then you're doing something wrong and I'm all out of suggestions for now.

[fireclav]

ok i tried that and still getting that error, this is what im doing as far as router ports

Forwarding Ports
9000
7000-7100
5999

all to the servers ip. uhh have no fire walls or any of that slop installed on other pc. i wouldnt assume the problem would be one is running win 2k the other xp pro would it be?

i also setup in MSQLCC an account for the client side pc with that IP address in there.


but other then just copying what you just posted and forwarding those ports ive done nothing else to config anything as far as server side

client side i have hte eqhost file setup to run to this ip on port 5999. anything else i should be doing?

[vales]

Looks like everything is ok. You installed Titanium, right?

[fireclav]

yes i installed Titanium on both pc's. im totally stumped and really wish i could get this working. have you any other ideas on what i may be doing wrong.

[vales]

1.) Have you disabled the firewall in WindowsXP/2000?

2.) Have you tried the NAT Fix from the wikki? Make sure you use this one. The other one is incorrect/obsolete now.
http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka...akka=RouterFix

3.) Did you use the DRP installer for making the server or did you do it manually?

4.) Can you connect to any public servers from the list?

[fireclav]

i will give the nat another go but i had tried that last night.

as far as firewalls yes i turned them off.. i used the cavedudes installer for the server. the one from the wik. but yes i will give the NAT another go but i dont think thats it but maybe never know

didnt see a list of public servers



just went back to the no-ip site this is how i setup the thing on there end to make sure im doing this right

HostNAme sorarn
no-ip.info
DNS HOST (a)
ip (Real ip)

hit save or what ever and thats all then i followed the steps in the guide and add'd it to my host file the way it says there

from there i went to every spot in my emu and log that had 192.168 addy and put the no ip one there. and on the client side in the eqhost i put sorarn.no-ip.info:5999 is all that right

so now my emu and login are hte same as the ones you posted but with my no ip in there instead of my local. will try this in a sec

let me know if thats all right

just tried it btw, and still getting that 1017 error. server side it says

New Client from IP 192.168.1.1 port 4835
unknown packet blah blah blah

when it says
Note the dragonnest.no-ip.info is what you need to replace with yours.
Also after doing this use the dns address for your worldserver address as well as you zoneserver address. Replace all the 127.0.0.1 with your DNS address. After doing this bothe people from outside your router as well as yourself will be able to log into server.
by DNS does it mean the sorarn.no-ip.info or my other IP 63.blah
