This topic above, here's my notes about it.

I used debian-7.6.0-amd64-netinst.iso

----compile EQEMU section---
cmake is now used instead of just make, so these steps are added:
apt-get install cmake
cmake .
make

---Grabbing the sources--
remove these (deprecated):
svn co http://projecteqdb.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/peqdatabase peq
svn co http://projecteqquests.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/quests quests

they're now https://drive.google.com/folderview?...p=sharing#list


copying and linking files:

on the change to server dir, copy and create links steps:
cp ../source/utils/patches/patch_* ./
cp ../source/utils/patches/opcodes.conf ./

This is a personal preference, so if you recompile it backs up old and copies new. cleanipc and a lot of commands aren't properly noted here, but can be. (You need to copy the files from ~/eq/source/Bin/* over to your ~/eq/server/ dir.
~/eq/server/$
nano sync.sh

#!/bin/bash
#sync latest compiled source files to server dir. Place in server dir.
mkdir -p backup/
cp zone backup/$(date +%Y-%m-%d)-zone
cp ../source/Bin/zone .
cp eqlaunch backup/$(date +%Y-%m-%d)-eqlaunch
cp ../source/Bin/eqlaunch .
cp world backup/$(date +%Y-%m-%d)-world
cp ../source/Bin/world .
cp /usr/lib/libEMuShareMem.so backup/$(date +%Y-%m-%d)-libEMuShareMem.so
cp ../source/Bin/libEMuShareMem.so /usr/lib/
echo Syncronized.

Database Setup no longer has a peqdb_rev.sql_gz, the source noted has a readme DO NOT USE THIS DB
instead, copied from the readme.txt
-----------
create database whatever_db_name_you_want;
use whatever_db_name_you_made;
source peqbeta_blahblah.sql;
source player_tables_blahblah.sql;

(OPTIONAL) source load_login.sql;
(OPTIONAL) source load_bots.sql;

copy eqtime.cfg over to the directory where your server binaries live.

If you plan on using the public EQEmu login server, then sourcing load_login.sql is not necessary.
If you wish to use a local login, you can login using Admin and the password "password". You can also look in load_login.sql to see how to add your own users manually.

-----------------

Then run:
mysql -u root -p peq < peqbeta*.sql
mysql -u root -p peq < player_tables_*.sql

cp ~/eq/peq/eqtime.cfg ~/eq/server/

EQEMU setup--
the mv eqemu_config.xml.bak command doesn't do anything. No source/destination. I think it wants:
mv eqemu_config.xml eqemu_config.xml.bak


Create your server start and stop files---

instead of the mess of shell scripts, I normally install gnu screen or tmux or whatever. I adjust tmux personally with this https://gist.github.com/andreyvit/2921703 so it feels like screen. and do a series of C+a c C+a , and call them eqlaunch, world, whatever you launch.

eqconfig needs login.eqemulator.net 5998 as well

I think that's about it.
