Updated Windows Server Setup Guide

i do not get step 9 in this guild about creating another database called peqlogindb? as far as i have tried and messed arouind with this, nothing uses that database, it is using the account section in peq database and i think that is why i am having issues. i have a server up and runing but no one can log in and create their own account. only can log in if i create them an account in peq/account myself. so what is step 9 actually doing?

It's using the new EQEmuLogin server. The database creation is for simplicity's sake. Minilogin is pretty much unsupported, afaik. I figured since the development is moving along with the new Login Server, that it would be a good idea to include it since mostly everyone is trying to run their own MiniLogin server and it's not really supported for multiple connections on the same LAN.

I tried version 884 bots and no bots. I get a missing perl58.dll error

I insert the perl58.dll from a perl install from years ago and get "procedure entry point Perl_newXS_flags could not be located in perl58.dll

Any ideas? I followed the guide as written, I installed the perl5.10 as mentioned in guide, also uninstalled it and installed 5.8 still same issues.

Tried a crackheaded idea I thought of after writing this, renamed (after backing up) the perl510.dll to perl58 and got a different error altogether (no I did not expect this to work, but hey i'm annoyedly desperate) "procedure entry point Perl_Top_ptr could not be located in perl58.dll
