Done about all i can

[majinnoone]

Oh one more thing, my windows version is xp pro, and all i have a home backup or visa. the tcp isn't configured on my browser i thought this my be a issue aswell. but my teacher does not think thats the case. But someone i have the feeling it is, but since the backup disk is required it does not let me change the settings. I am not a tech guy, more of a designer or Gm style of person. It was just my idea to start the server so i am the one in charge of the setup which i wish my tech friends were around. I been working on offline rpgs of my own content for a few years now in differnt formats, mainly RPG maker series, so i have some understanding of game content. and i played many online games and servers, in eq1-2, and the dreaded wow. which i think eq1 had the best idea, but really should take some from eq2, and other games, now wow, i did not enjoy as much as eq, but i did like some ideas they had, or took from other games which is all wow did. nothing in that game is theirs, besides war craft plot line which is the only reason its alive still. anyhow if i cant get this up in a couple months i will post some ideas on the forms if anyone wishes to do them to thier server, just let me know so i know my ideas were used,and i can test them myself on the server > thank you all for you help and time.

I cannot completely understand what you are saying, but here goes...

The exact error would be helpful. It sounds like you are saying you have an old install. So, you'd need to run something like

SET PASSWORD FOR 'some_user'@'some_host' = OLD_PASSWORD('newpwd');

or depending on the mysql version, you may be able to just delete an old my.ini file in your windows folder. You'll may need to rerun config setup.

For your router, check http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka...akka=RouterFix

I am guessing you put this section back in your config:

<address>192.168.0.182</address>
<localaddress>192.168.0.182</localaddress>

Accept it looks like you changed one of the lines to "eqnevaeh.no-ip.biz" now.

As I said before, you don't want to configure that section in your config. It will mess your connection up unless you know exactly what you are doing. And 99% of the time it isn't needed at all.

It sounds like your main issue is still with MySQL. You might need to google search for some solutions to reset your root password for MySQL. Once your accounts are setup properly, it should start working.
