Is login server down?

[Rhodan]

I've spent the last hour attempting to get my server going with a public login (got the minilogin working great!). I'm pretty sure I have the config files done correctly and I've forwarded 9000 TCP and 7000-7150 UDP to the server box. I put the LS account name and password into the XML file (the loginserver.ini says to NOT put them there).

When I start up, I get an error saying wrong account name and password...

I thought perhaps I'd goofed with the account password (using the one listed in the LS account listings, not the board password) so I created a second account and changed the XML file to match (I KNOW I have the right account/pass now!)

I tried again and same error... So I took a wander over to the server listing and I see there are NO servers up!

So, is the login server down and its not just me being a dork (yet)?

Oops... I guess this should have gone into general support.. Oh well, half-a-dork proven anyway.
