New Private Server

[Excuses]

Hiya,

Ive just set up a private server and a VM windows 7 box, as far as i am aware it is all compiled correctly.

The issue i am having now is i have set my main pc eqhost to the ip address and port of the server that is hosting eq and attempt to login with the "account" information in the peq database, but the server comes back with
a connecton to the server cannot be reached.

I have checked the forums and read through and troubleshooted but am now posting, i have checked all firewalls, so they are fine.

When u click start.bat and the cmd boxes pops up, are they all suppose to return positive connections? queryserv just stays at connecting to mysql.

Or any other ideas would be great, thanks.
