I'm sitting here seeing repeated loigns and logouts, so I'm led to believe that someone is having trouble getting ZoneProxy running (or getting it so that the server can see it). Here's a walkthrough of what I do to get mine running, in the hope that the example might help.

1. My ZoneProxy.exe is in the same folder as my EQ folder. This is critical, since ZP looks in its folder for the zone files.

2. I sit behind a Linksys router, so I have to have incoming requests on port 8800 redirected to my LAN IP address. Therefore, the first thing I do is open up a DOS prompt and type "ipconfig". This gives me an address of, for example, 192.168.1.105.

3. I then go into my router configuration. I do this by opening up a browser and connecting to http://192.168.1.1, which is the router's address on my LAN. It prompts me for a username and password, and after typing in the appropriate values it gives me the configuration webpage.

4. On my router I then click on the orange "Advanced" tab, which gives me a different screen. I then click on the "Forwarding" tab. I add an enty for ZoneProxy, and under "Ext. Port" I enter 8800 in both the begin and end port range values. I then check both the TCP and UDP checkboxes, and in the destination IP address I enter 105 (the 192.168.1. part is entered for me). I then check the enable checkbox and click Apply.

Note that this is for *my* router, but if you have something similar it might help. Make sure to read your router documentation and look for TCP or port forwarding.
