Ok. this is absolutely unreal now. I stripped out the akk-stack configuration and started up a base linux server install.

EXACTLY the same issue. I CANNOT get the login server to start on 5999, it insists on 5998.

I am starting to think this isn't even possible. BTW 20+ years of linux admin experience so I have a fair idea of what I am doing.

eqemu_config.json

    "world" : {
         "key" : "<sekret>",
         "loginserver1" : {
            "account" : "",
            "host" : "<my ip>",
            "legacy" : "0",
            "password" : "",
            "port" : "5999"
         },
         "longname" : "My name",
         "shortname" : "My name",
         "address" :  "<my ip>",
         "localaddress" : "<my ip>",
         "tcp" : {
            "ip" : "127.0.0.1",
            "port" : "9001"
         },
         "telnet" : {
            "enabled" : "true",
            "ip" : "0.0.0.0",
            "port" : "9000"
