I can't find any error messages in any log files about the no user account or incorrect password. Obviously the error message itself is from Everquest and not the emulator.

Created a server with 774 and revision 859 on the db. Also I have tried logging in with both Titanium and SOF.

Thanks

I was able to log in if all ip's involved were internal ip's (ie 192.168.xxx.xxx) or localhost. I wasn't able to login using any external ip's, even with all the ports forwarded to the corresponding internal ip's.

haven't had much time to play with it of late.

Nos, I have had trouble in the past getting people to be able to log in from external addresses. I had to setup the eqemu_config.xml file with the dns name. I got the dns name from dyndns, so the dns name pointed to my ip on my router. I then had to modify the hosts file on each pc on the internal network with the internal address associated with the dns name. That was the only way I was able to get both internal and external addresses to work.

Continued from above (couldn't edit)

My issue stems from the everquest client not passing the correct username or password to my login database. I did use the query to enter the password so that the password is sha encrypted.

Since I have gotten an account to work I am assuming that the eq client is not handling the password/encryption in the same way that the we are adding it to the database. There may be something else I am forgetting or not realized I should have done.

I never had a problem setting up a server using external ip's if using eqemulator.net to log in - only the newly-released login server. using eqemulator.net, i could log in locally or remotely w/o a problem.

like i said, i haven't had much time to play with it, but i'll try the dns approach as soon as i can.

Thanks!

Did you use the pre-compiled binary or compile your own? If you compiled your own, make sure you used the corresponding EQEmuAuthCrypto.dll. Ie if you compiled RELEASE, then you need to use the EQEmuAuthCrypto.dll from EQEmuLoginServer\login_util\ms\release

Edit: I just re-read your post and saw you were using linux - i don't know if the .so file is for both release/debug vers or not.

[norsan]

i compild my own undr windows and also undr linux he linux cypto library throws an error under linux i run the windows compile under wine atm because of this

[norsan]

yeah i have it does not accept world server connections not defined in th worldregistration table it allows them to connect but cant process logins to it due to it not setting the serverid properly

[nosfentora]

i have that table filled out, same info i put in my config.xml.

would you mind posting what you did to get it to work, maybe i missed something.

[norsan]

i did nothing else besides the normal configuration and setup of the emulator server as outlined in the wiki guides nothing special or different just a normal outa box setup

[norsan]

as a side question any word when the new security library for linux will be done kls?

[nosfentora]

are you talking about the mini login or the new EQEmuLoginServer?

[norsan]

dude this ls i have never and will never use minilogin seriously all i did was setup a normal worldserver and that was that put it in the ls database made my ls account and that was it there is no special trick i used that im not sharing lol seriously just follow the guides check for typos and make sure you got the ip stuff setup right in the config file thats all i did

[nosfentora]

dude chill! miscommunication happens! just making sure we're on the same page.
the only reason i asked is you said 'guides' and i don't see a guide anywhere for the new ls.
thanks for the clarification.
