timed out?

[MayhemMby]

After getting a timeout I look at my eqhost.txt file and it reads
[LoginServer]
Host=xp-smitchell:7308

I change the Host file to read (I'm using minilogin):
[LoginServer]
127.0.0.1:5999

I run eqgame with the command N:\EQlocal\eqgame.exe patchme
I get a timeout when I try to login
I look at eqhost.txt and it reads:
[LoginServer]
Host=xp-smitchell:7308

I enter the following:
[LoginServer]
Host=127.0.0.1:5999

and it runs fine and the eqhost file does not change. Maybe this info will help.

Something keeps changing it back to that if you dont have the host=
