first, you are slightly out of synch. you need eqw 2.2.1. There is a link to it somewhere.
[should be posted in win32 support]
you first step is getting a connection to the login server gotfrags. This is the easiest thing to do and it only involves two steps:
-getting a gotfrags account
-changing the eqhost.txt to point to gotfrags
The reason why I don't give step-by-step instructions is that it removes "thinking".
The next step for setting up your own server is installing mysql. Follow their installation instructions.
Then decide if you want a "local only" or "Internet accsessible" server.
I posted an excellent outline today about the major things you need to do. It's in the Win32 support section.
