The you want to use Port RANGE Forwarding, not Port Forwarding if that is what you are using. The only ranges you need for people to publicly connect to the emulator server are 7000 to 7100 and 9000 to 9000. You can also forward 9080 if you want to use the admin tool externally.

Wiley,

I imagine you could setup a himachi connection, but dyndns works just as well. You wouldn't need either of these on a public server if you ever considered that instead.

When you want people to connect to your server running mini login, I think you just need to have them put your IP or dyndns address and port 5999 in their eqhost.txt file. If they have eqemulator.net in there, it will go to the public login server.

If you are using minilogin, you have to manually make every account. If you were using the public login, you don't have to do anything as the login server does everything for you.
