Solved.

If you are hosting your server in your OWN PC you are not able to login with your global ip, use localhost or 127.0.0.1

 

[The Unforgiven]

I know that, hence the "and I don't think anyone else can, either," part. I'll just have to wait to see if someone can log in, hmm?

It takes me to the bringing up character list, and stops there, if that helps.

Firewall must be OFF!

 

[The Unforgiven]

Ah, I see. Well, I guess now all I have to do is see if the IP will work. Thanks!

You check check if all ports are forwarded correctly through this function: Open Port Check Tool

It was working fine until I switched to a new computer. My old computer had XP. My current one has Vista. Is this the problem?

 

[The Unforgiven]

Bump?

When I hosted my ot I used my global ip and it worked just fine.

Thats the stupidest thing you can do.
Open the ports don't turn off the whole thing.

 

[The Unforgiven]

Hmm. I've disabled UAC, IIS, tried a load of firewall settings (can't find a list of ports, for some reason... damn Norton), and my friend is getting a "cannot connect to login server" error. D:

 

[The Unforgiven]

Bump. D:

Does it work when ur firewall is off? and did you check if ur ports were forwarded correctly through the link i sent you?

Error: I could not see your service on 96.25.59.152 on port (3306)
Reason: Connection refused
With firewall on.

With it off:
Error: I could not see your service on 96.25.59.152 on port (3306)
Reason: Connection timed out

Oh, and http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ says:
Port 3306 is closed on 96.25.59.152.
But... I have my firewall off, port 3306 enabled... I just don't get it. =/

 

[The Unforgiven]

...Bump.

Follow the guides at Portforwarding.com
Remember to set an static IP to your computer and type in your static IP in the adress field. This should open the correct ports on your computer, for your specific IP adress.

 

[The Unforgiven]

I got the global IP to work, but someone else tried it and it said "could not connect to a log in server." This is driving me insane...

Everything seems to work for me, but not other people. D:

Edit: He made it to the character list, but it said connection failed, or something like that, when he tried logging in.

 

[The Unforgiven]

Bump.

Some options - firewall blocking, private ip, or u must use hamachi or no-ip
#Edit i know what can do this problem, invalid ip adress in config file, try it
