Default Fixed, with Explanation

So, apparently something that previously worked before isn't working now so had to remove an IP digit ... figures

in login.ini the line,

local_network = 172.16.0.1

worked before, as that would cover all computers on the network connected to the router, but it does not now. So, by using,

local_network = 172.16.0.

works fine.

However, this doesn't really answer why the router gateway 172.16.0.1 is not being recognized when it should, actually used the gateway address on the older eqemu setup and worked.

So, if anyone else has same issue, I guess try deleting the last number in local network ip address :/

Very strange.....

Default

The reason behind this is probably the default 192.168.16.1 is the access to your router/ modem (the address you use to get to your router port forwardinmg and such).

By setting it to 192.168.16.1 it is trying to access your router settings.

Now if it was like the old school set up, you would use 192.168.16.45 (if thats the IP of your pc that is hosting the sever).

I have seen a post or two about dropping the last digit. I guess thats what the new system requires.
