For your sons computer, he should have a *NON patched* Everquest installed.
in the EverQuest folder select eqgame.exe, Right click that and click add shortcut to desktop.
On your Desktop, Right click that shortcut and select Properties At the end of the directory add patchme
It should look something like this: ""C:\Program Files\EverQuest\eqgame.exe" patchme
So, for his computer all he needs is EQ non patched installed, the proper eqhost.txt file and the proper shortcut. He is done and can play.
For your computer, set it up just like his so far. Edit the access tables (add his accounts to the Accounts table and edit the ammount of access he has,'255') Then, when your server is up and running, and you are in world #lock it. He will still be able to log in and play on the server with you. But no one else can. If you want more friends/family to play, all you need to do is add their account into the same table and edit their access rights.
If you are still haveing issues just keep us updated!
