[Derision]

For the opcode problem, re-extract them from the rar/zip they came in, or create a new copy with what I posted above.

Although the guide says not to set the address and localaddress values in eqemu_config.xml, I think you might have to in this case.

Get a dyndns name, e.g. yourserver.dyndns.com, then make your config:

		<!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to.  (read: You don't) -->
		
		<address>yourserver.dyndns.com</address>
		
		<localaddress>Your internal IP address</localaddress>

		


	<!-- Chatserver (channels) information.  Defaults shown -->
	
	<chatserver>
		<host>yourserver.dyndns.com</host>
		<port>10234</port>
	</chatserver>

	<!-- Mailserver (in-game mail) information.  Defaults shown -->
	
	<mailserver>
		<host>yourserver.dyndns.com</host>
		<port>7779</port>
	</mailserver>

And add a line with your internal IP address and yourserver.dyndns.com to c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc hosts on your internal clients.

I haven't run a public server for years, so any ServerOPs who have mail/chat working on a public server feel free to correct me.

You also need to forward those two ports on your firewall for external clients to connect to mail/chat.
