Server Connection Issues

Maybe look at your eqemu_config.xml (in your server root directory).

The world section might be set to localhost or 127.0.0.1 instead of your server's ip address (it should be to the server's ip)

As Chanus says, check your eqemu_config.xml

Code:

[Thu Dec 09 10:27:56 2010]00037:*** WorldAuthenticate. Error connecting to :9000 [clientDisconnectReasonConnectFail,serverDisconnectReasonNone]

I would expect to see your server IP address before the :9000, e.g. 'Error connecting to 192.168.254.20:9000'

where is the client looking for that information? the only thing i changed on the client is the login server. which is working. the only thing i see for port 9000 is in the eqemu_config, which says
<tcp ip=eq.toadville.org" port="9000" telnet="disable" />

on the server, my host record points that name to 127.0.0.1, on the client, my host record points that name to the ip address of the server 192.168.254.20

The client is hardcoded to connect to world on udp port 9000. This is the section in eqemu_config.xml that specifies your world address:

Code:

        <world>
                <address>yourserver.ip.address.or.dns.name</address>-->
                <localaddress>192.168.1.100</localaddress>-->
                <loginserver>
                      <host>localhost</host>
                      <port>5998</port>
                      <account>account</account>
                      <password>password</password>
                </loginserver>
                <key>Some Long Random String</key>

                <shortname>BTG3</shortname>
                <longname>ZZZ BWG2 Private</longname>
                <http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />
        </world>

I use the latest version of EQEmuloginserver from the source code SVN, but I don't think I have changed that config section from when I used minilogin for my private server.
