ignore the winmysqladmin's message.

if you haven't created the database yet, do the following. If you have, skip to the next part.

make sure you have db.sql in the bin folder first.

open a command prompt (command for win9x, cmd for winnt,2k,xp)

go to the bin folder if it's not already open. (I'm assuming it's in c:\mysql since that is the default)

cd\mysql\bin
mysqladmin create eq

then open mysql.exe and do the following

use eq
source db.sql
INSERT INTO account SET name='eqemu', password='eqemu', status 200,lsaccount_id=0;

then you can login with eqemu/eqemu through everquest with the emu open.ignore the winmysqladmin's message.
