login server issues

[weezilla]

Okay, I've just finished my third server setup this week in attempt of success (windows, then linux, then fresh windows).

This last time I installed a fresh copy of windows xp 32bit sp2 home. I compiled revision 1583server code and sourced peqdb_rev1549. I followed http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=Windows religiously.

I couldn't find EQEmuLoginServer.exe after I compiled, so I pulled the one from the google SVN and made my own eqemulogin.ini, since this version of EQEmuLoginServer.exe doesn't seem to point at the current source's "login.ini"

Port=5998
DumpPacketsIn=true
DumpPacketsOut=true
Trace=true
DatabaseServerName=localhost
DatabaseCatalogName=peqlogindb
DatabaseUserName=root
DatabaseUserPassword=mypw
OPCodePathAndFileName=login_opcodes_sod.conf

Here is my eqemu_config.xml.

I see
"Connecting to login server: weezilla.dyndns.org:5998"
"Setting World to MiniLogin Server type"
"Connected to login server: weezilla.dyndns.org:5998"
Even though I'm running EQEmuLoginServer.exe and not minilogin.exe

The Login server seems to be running fine, but I do see this:
"Unhandled server packet 0x1000"
after I run world.exe (but it seems to run after that).

I set my eqhost.txt to point directly to my server, and I'm able to login with ANY username/password combination. The server list is empty and it displays 0 of 0 expansions.

I tried minilogin, but every configuration I try, I just get "A connection to the server could not be reached."

I know I have to be really close >< I don't know what it is stopping me. I've got almost 30 hours in this over the weekend and was hoping to get it working before classes start again tomorrow =(

Any help would be EXTREMELY appreciated. (Btw, my aim is to have this on the public login at eqemulator.net).
