Is anyone able (and willing) to explain how minilogin worked?

I'm guessing it would compare account info with your MySQL database to confirm you're allowed access, but I'm not sure how it routed the connection to the world server after (I'm not asking for any specifics, but I was kind of curious as to an overview of how it worked).

I may be wrong, but I also thought you could set up eqemu and use a single connection without minilogin, but to connect more then one user at a time - without going through eqemu login servers - you needed minilogin (I think I read that in a post somewhere a while ago, but I could be mistaken or the poster could have been wrong :lol: )

If anyone is willing and able to explain a basic overview, I'd really appreciate it. With all the posts about minilogin since SOE broke it :( I've gotten pretty curious about why it seems to be a unique program that you need if you want a LAN eqemu server setup.
