Friends Disconnect When Zoning

[Uleat]

That's definitely a 'kick' action from the server.

Did you add the

'Loginserver:  		
Client disconnected (cs=d): No name'

portion manually?

Or did the console print it like that?

(Not sure why authentication would fail on zone change if it didn't while logging in initially.)

That's exactly how the console showed it. I copy and pasted it from the Linux machine to here.

Is there a way to disable authentication on zone changing?

Also, just in case this helps at all... here is the dbg log from the disconnecting client.

Just because I had a little extra time, I backed up everything and did a clean install of Akkadius' Linux Installer on a clean install of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Then I restored my database and my eqemu_config file and login.ini.

I then tested everything by mobile hotspotting onto my server from the outside connection... I'm still having this issue. I even tested both the RoF2 and Titanium clients. It's happening with both on zoning. So I'm assuming it must be something in my configuration is borked for some reason.

I've been trying non-stop to fix this issue. My latest effort was to reinstall Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and download the server install from scratch. This time, I didn't restore my database or anything, I tried with the vanilla version of Akkadius' Linux installer. Even with a fresh install, this error persists.

[Zone Server] Time Broadcast Packet: EQTime [03:00 pm]

[Login Server] Application packet received from client (size 12)	
[Login Server] Client disconnected from the server, removing client.

Either I'm missing something here, or maybe this is an issue with the Linux version of part of the installer? I'm assuming the "zone" part, since this 'kick' occurs when zoning.

As another test, I switched from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS to Fedora 30, thinking maybe a .RPM based Linux system might have a different result (for some reason) and... Nope. In my experience, I've been able to reproduce this error 100% of the time when connecting from an outside connection.

I've tried changing every setting I can find, reinstalling my machine, and even changed OS versions, but I can't seem to fix this error.

Can anyone confirm that they're running a Linux version of EQEmu that does not have this error when someone from an outside connection tries to zone? (And maybe share which version of Linux you're running.)
