Server Help

[Orion Tatsihama]

Currently, I tried to host an eqemu server off of my computer.
I'm connected through proxy and set everything up as follows:

[b][i]eqhost[/b][/i]

[Registration Servers]
{
"eqlogin1.eqemu.org:5999"
}
[Login Servers]
{
"eqlogin1.eqemu.org:5999"
"eqlogin2.eqemu.org:5999"
}


[b][i]Boot5zone[/i][/b]

@echo off
start zoneNT . 206.71.122.46 7995 127.0.0.1
start zoneNT . 206.71.122.46 7996 127.0.0.1
start zoneNT . 206.71.122.46 7997 127.0.0.1
start zoneNT . 206.71.122.46 7998 127.0.0.1
start zoneNT . 206.71.122.46 7999 127.0.0.1
exit
cls


[b][i]LoginServer[/i][/b]

[LoginServer]
loginserver=eqlogin1.eqemu.org
loginserver2=eqlogin2.eqemu.org
loginport=5999
loginport2=5999
worldname=eXistenz - A New World
locked=false
account=
password=
worldaddress=206.71.122.46

[LoginConfig]
ServerMode=Standalone
ServerPort=5999

The database is fine. I ran world.exe and boot5zone without a problem. But when I tried to connect, it said that it couldn't connect to login server.

I think the problem is, I need to host the server off of the server computer in the house. This one connects to the internet through the server. The IP address I put in the eqemu files is the ip I got from whatismyip.com

Do I need to host it off the server or is there anything else I can do?

Each of the "127.0.0.1" entries should be changed to "206.71.122.46".

Did you even read the directions? Each of the YourIP entries are supposed to be replaced with your REAL IP. As said right at the top of the .bat files.

Actually what he has is correct. Orion, most likely just need to add port fowarding to your proxy.

Anything coming to your network on ports 9000, and 7995-7999 need to be fowarded to the Lan IP of the computer running the EQEmu server. Unless your running a software proxy moving the EQEmu to the "server" computer won't liekly help.

How would I do that under Windows 2000 (that's the server.)

I connect to the internet buy clicking: Internet Connection Sharing on the connection thingy in the Network Connections box.

Edit: I found this little program. I hope it works:

UPIN Port Forwarder 1.0

This simple windows based port forwarder. This is made by Gizmo and Neo of UPIN. This is quite basic, just enter the IP on your computer to forward, then the host and port of the computer you wish to forward to. This works with both internal and external IP's.

I got it from: http://www.undergroundnews.com/files/files.htm

If it works, you might wanna post it somewhere else for users who have a problem like mine
I'm gonna go try it!
