Server up and running no errors, 1017 for anyone else trying

[jenniferrose]

Got my server all up and going, i run mysql, world.exe, boot5zones, run everquest and log into eqemulator.net , my server on the server select , i log into my server and play works great. I have a couple friends that tried to log into same server, same way and they get 1017 errors, but they can log into other servers, as well as I can log into other servers. Could this be a database problem or a problem on the other end? any help would be appreciated. thank you.
