Ok this is weird..im such a newb but, i successfully installed ShowEQ and it runs..the net connection is on my linux machine..it is setup as a proxy to my WinME machine, I can ping between the two and use the internet with the WinME machine using the proxy on the Linux machine...everything is connected by a hub, I'm a 56ker...My problem is...I run normal EQ it installed the latest patch since..hadn't played it on that machine lately..and i enter my login/pw and well..it won't log into server..keeps telling me to try again later...it will not connect to the server..although the EQ patcher works and everything...Anyone know what the deal is..my proxy is setup up using Webmin and Squid...if that helps..PLS help...i got this far and now i need some help..
