I just added a makefile to svn. Also patched files to allow compiling under linux and converted the utf16 SQL files to ascii text.

Excellent, thanks gaeorn.

ok well i go this up and running but it seems it times out and removes all world servers from the list after being idle for 15-30 minutes any idea why?

I am unable to login using the eqemuloginserver. I have followed these instructions: http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=ValesEQ and http://www.eqemulator.net/forums/sho...0&postcount=41 from nosfentora. 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

Ok, I'm going to admit that I don't know much about encryption but the only way I was able to login was to set my password as '11111111'. I had to use 8, 7 wouldn't work for me. A password with 8 chars wouldn't work, and a password with 8 2's would not work.

I assume that it must be some kind of fluke that this worked for me, but I wanted to mention it in case there was some error with the encryption.

Just a guess on my part.

Wow, I must say I didn't toy with any password under 8 characters before, but first password I created for 6 characters (4 numbers and 2 letters) worked. Not sure why 8 characters (all letters) didn't work before, but I don't really care so long as it works now. Thanks for the idea.

Do you mean you put the pw in plain-text as '11111111'? If so, you need to run a query

update tblLoginServerAccounts set AccountPassword=sha('<your password') where AccountName='<your account name>'

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.

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.
