Wow, you obviously didn't follow the guide very well..

This:

c:
cd "\eqemu\cvs\eqemu\eqemu release"
mysql -u root mysql

Is irrelevant. It's basically saying to cd out to your cvs directory (which deals with the source code of eqemu) and then to load a mysql console? That makes no sense! either it's:

c:
cd \eqemu\cvs\eqemu\eqemu release
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/blah blah blah

OR, it'd be:

c:
cd \mysql\bin
mysql -u root mysql
(which is a proper path... although as a good rule of thumb, you should add the \mysql\bin directory to your environment variables).

Watch the steps more closely... this opened you up for a bit of a flame, considering everyone spent all that time making setup guides so people didn't just blindly come on the forum and ask for help with something 10 million other newbs a day ask for. Just a bit of advice, if you actually want people to respond to your 'help' threads.

good luck
