the syntax for the command line for
MySQL is:
mysql -u (username) -p (password)
what you edit in the db.ini file will have no bearing unless the account name and password you put in there has access to the eq database in MySQL
(the db.ini file is for EQEmu, not a part of MySQL which is where your databases are stored)
and as far as I can tell, everything stays the same in Win98, except how the adding to the system path is set up, so follow the instructions EXACTLY, and find where someone else asked about the Win98 %PATH% stuff for it.
Course then you ask, do you have a firewall, is the permissions for your ip set up right in MySQL, etc.
Oh, and think about an OS upgrade
