I'm currently running my own offline portable server. All settings in the config point to 127.0.0.1 or to localhost. It runs fine, but I also want to set it up so a small number of people can connect from other sources, but I don't want to open it up as a server everyone can connect to. Is there a way to set this up?
my eqemu_config.xml is this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<server>
<world>
<shortname>Offline</shortname>
<longname>Everquest Offline</longname>
<!-- address has to be specified for minilogin to work -->
<address>localhost</address>
<localaddress>localhost</localaddress>
<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>5999</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
</loginserver>
<!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world -->
<key>make up some random string of characters here</key>
<!-- Enable and set the port for the HTTP service -->
<http port="9080" enable="true" mimefile="mime.types"/>
</world>
<!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini -->
<database>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>root</username>
<password>password</password>
<db>peq</db>
</database>
</server>
and my loginserver.ini looks like this:
### --- This file tells world.exe what loginserver to connect to.
### --- Leave the account and password field BLANK.
### --- Public Login is un-supported as is LAN playing. We reccomend using the EQEmu.net Loginserver ALWAYS.
### --- NOTE: Starting 6-1-2002, you can no longer use the word "Server" in worldname.
### --- NOTE2: the word "Server" is added to each server automaticly.
