EQHOSTS.TXT
[LoginServer]
Host=127.0.0.1:5999

DB.INI
[Database]
host=127.0.0.1
user=***
password=***
database=eq

BOOT5ZONES.BAT
@echo off
if NOT exist spells_us.txt goto NOSPELL
start zone . 127.0.0.1 7995 127.0.0.1
start zone . 127.0.0.1 7996 127.0.0.1
start zone . 127.0.0.1 7997 127.0.0.1
start zone . 127.0.0.1 7998 127.0.0.1
start zone . 127.0.0.1 7999 127.0.0.1
exit
cls
:NOSPELL
echo You did not copy the spells_us.txt from your everquest directory to this one. Please do so or zones will crash on startup.
PAUSE

LOGINSERVER.INI
[LoginServer]
loginserver=127.0.0.1
#loginserver2=newlogin1.eqemulator.net
loginport=5999
#loginport2=5999
worldname=enter any name here
worldaddress=127.0.0.1
locked=false
account=
password=
[LoginConfig]
ServerMode=MiniLogin
ServerPort=5999

MINILOGINACCOUNTS.INI
127.0.0.1 eqemu eqemu

Ensure all acocunts in the 'accounts' table have therir MINILOGIN_IP address set to 127.0.0.1 also, and ensure there is an 'eqemu' account with password 'eqemu' and minilogin_ip set to 127.0.0.1 (refer minilogin instructions in the forums)

This allowed me to get in standalone, now the fun part of migrating the addresses over 1 by 1,,, and finding out where exactly the problem is.

Hope this helps a little.
I cant find any of these files in my eq directory or my wr folder. I am a novice at this and I'm still having a bit of trouble. I dont understand what you mean by migrating addresses.
also the eqhost.txt will not go to read only. no matter what I do now it will always say there is no eqhost.txt file.
is there a known good walkthrough for a novice user?
