You need to use a DNS name for your server, the update your local host file with your internal IP address.

there should be several threads regarding it, especially in the linux forum.

Aye Trumpcard is right (of course!), I just found an old post I made about solving this problem:

http://www.eqemulator.net/forums/vie...sc&start=7

Ignore the Loginserver= and LoginPort= statements, since that was posted back before the new login server, but the rest is still valid.

so,
Code:
Server:  nsx.charter-stl.com
Address:  24.217.0.5

Name:    fl1-24.217.209.6.charter-stl.com
Address:  24.217.209.6
The fl1-24.217.298.6.charter-stl.com would be it or nsx.charter-stl.com

Try adding the npc to npc_types (or NPCs tab in EQAdmin) and using #dbspawn.

#npcspawn create

this command simply creates a "copy" of whatever npc you had targeted and makes a npctype in the database.

It has nothing to do whatsoever with putting a spawn down. you have to use #npcspawn add to place a spawn point
