newbie coming back after countless years

[stalbott972]

So I have recently heard the call to return and it has been probably 7-8 years since I last was playing actively. Back then I had a second machine connected off a hub running gentoo with no problems. So I loaded up in virtual box a new hard drive and installed multiple flavors and had nothing but problems getting the package dependencies to match. I finally after reading a few posts on here switched over to centos 6.8 and after installing about 4 packages was able to get the latest tar file to compile without error. I fired it up and nothing showing across the network. I made sure that virtual box is set as bridged mode for the network adaptor. I also put in the ip address in showeq of the host to listen to (full and not 127.0.0.1). Beyond that still no skittles or even realization that it is connected. I am guessing I am missing something probably obvious and it has just been too long. Does anyone have any quick ideas that might help out?

Thank you,
Steven

If SEQ is not seeing the client, make sure that under advanced that Promiscuous Mode is allow all.

Please note: in the past, Everquest banned people for running vmware and/or VirtualBox even though it may or may not have been for SEQ.

If you want a cheap and secure way to do it, get a raspberry pi3.
