check your listen port on EqEmuLogin

When I first tried, I could not connect for the life of me... then it suddenly struck me... the listen port and the world broadcast port where 1 didgit off... so when i was bleary eyed looking over the configs... it didn't notice it

ok, i seem to have server working now... but cant log in, have attempted from same com and I get a heap corruption error with server and it crashes ...
now if i try to connect to the server via a 2nd computer it wont even log in it times out any suggestions

Again, I had this problem - it's like deja vu

For me, this error was generated by my entry in the eqhost file in the Everquest directory of the machine running the server.

host=localhost:<yourport> worked OK
host=127.0.0.1:<yourport> worked OK
host=<yourIP eg 192.168.0.2>:<yourport> gave me the error you describe.

NB Even when I had this error, I could choose 'ignore' from the error window and still connect from the hosting machine. However, I never managed to get another WAN client connected, and gave up and used a private login (which suits my needs).

Hope this helps, good luck (you're almost there methinks).
