There is no need for your seperate loginserver anyways unless you are trying to prove that you made the emulator yourself. Just use the EQEMu loginserver and you'll be fine.
Sure there's a need. My wife and I both want to play on our own server. We're not interested in setting up a server that can be seen by the outside world, in fact, it wouldn't matter if the outside world COULD see it as we have Charter for an ISP and they don't allow servers. However, the way my LAN is set up, I can't go through the EQEMu login servers to play. My Linux box, the one that runs the server, is also my gateway. If I set up the server to work on the external IP address (which I'd have to do to connect to the EQEMu login servers), I can't connect from my LAN. If I set it up to use Minilogin, I can only connect one account at a time. I seem to remember a long time ago when MiniLogin would allow up to 16 connections at once, which even that would be overkill. If I had a MiniLogin that allowed even just 2 connections at once, I'd be able to do what I want to. As it is, I can't, and I guess I won't be able to.
