Issues settig up a lan server

revolt268 · #1 06-09-2006, 07:42 PM

I have been trying to set up a lan server because the place I'mmoving to in a few months doesn't have internet. So far I used the autoinstall program and I was able to set up a server on my main PC. Then I was able to log on with that same pc on to the game and play. My problem happens when I try to log on to me Server from my laptop. It gives me the 1017 error.

The eqhost file on the laptop is as follows:

[LoginServer]
Host=192.168.1.101:5999

The eqemu_cofig.xml is this

<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>Rev</shortname>
<longname>Revolution</longname>


<address>127.0.0.1</address>
<localaddress>192.168.1.101</localaddress>


<loginserver>
<host>192.168.1.101</host>
<port>5999</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
</loginserver>


<key>some long random string</key>


<http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />
</world>


<database>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>eq</username>
<password>eq</password>
<db>eq</db>
</database>
</server>

If there are any other files i'llneed to post let me know. I've tried a few thigs but I'm still ew to all this, so any help would be nice.

P.S. Thanks to all you guys here who have made this emulator what it is today. you all have done some nice work.

Have you Titanium everquest or Pre 09/13 client patch ?
Have you set all .ini files config for minilogin ?

First off, both copies are from a fresh install of the Titanium version, with no patch updates on them. I even resorted to copying the installation from my main to the laptop, but that didn't work either. I have the loginserver.ini set to this:

###Your current configuration is as follows:

loginserver.ini:
[LoginServer]
loginserver=192.168.1.101
loginport=5999
worldname=Revolution
worldaddress=192.168.1.101
locked=false
account=
password=

[WorldServer]
Defaultstatus=
Unavailzone=
[ChatChannelServer]

worldshortname=
chataddress=
chatport=

[LoginConfig]
ServerMode=Minilogin
ServerPort=5999

///////////////////////////

and config.ini to this:

[Database]
host=localhost
user=eq
password=eq
database=eq
compression=off

[General]
quests=C:\EQEmu\Quests\

wordwrap=1

//////////////////////

and the db.ini to this:

###Your current database configuration is as follows:
##db.ini:

[Database]
host=127.0.0.1
user=eq
password=eq
database=eq

///////////////////////////

I'm not sure if there are any other files. I last looked at this about a week ago and my mind is a little fuzzy. I may just try to do the whole thing over step by step again. If anyone sees anything I have missed, did wrong, or just has some tips let me know. Thanx

And you use this eqhost for the client pc ? :

Code:

[LoginServer]
Host=192.168.1.101:5999

I don't know if it was important with minilogin , but i see your xml is'nt complete :

Code:

<?xml version="1.0">
