Ok, so I have everything working perfectly on my local lan, but I told my brother about eqemu who lives across the country from me and now he wants to play with me on my server. I looked up a bunch of stuff on this site, but am still having problems. Here are the steps I took:
-I went to dyndns.org and made a free dyndns server pointing to my ip.
-I went to my router and used its dyndns settings to connect it to the dyndns server. (It told me Update OK when I checked the status)
-I went into the equemuconfig.xml and changed address and loginserver.host to the new dyndns server.
-I went into eqhost file and changed it to point to dyndns server.
I ran my server and everything seems to run normally, except the login server. I could not log in from my client. I do not know if this is significant, but when I changed my eqhost back to my local ip I could login, but could not see the server. Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
EDIT: Found an error message in my world.exe window saying could not connect to login server: censored.dydns.org:5998
