This is the way I set my server up.
I got the 5.9 DR2 winbloze setup
I got the 5.8 Classic DB
I got the aa_levels.sql DB
I got the aa_timers.sql DB
I got the altadv_vars.sql DB
I created using a guide in the forums that I can't find again, an account for EQEmu to access SQL
I granted rights to that account using the "root" account for MySQL, if your "root" has a password like mine does, you will need to use the -u for user, and the -p for password like this
examples: mysql -u root -p
once you do that it will ask you for the password.
change to your EQ database
end examples:
I sourced in the Classic DB
I sourced in the levels, timers and altadv DBs in that order
I changed all the addresses in the boot5zones.bat to my local LAN IP, both for server and world address
It works, basically a down and dirty.
To log in to this you need to ensure you have your EQ patched all the way up, then find the backwards patch to access 5.8 or 5.9 servers and you are in there like a butt hair.
