TO ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH WHAT TO PUT IN YOUR .CONF FILES. JUST FOLLOW THIS GUIDE. THESE ARE COPIES OF MY .CONF FILES AND I HAVE A WORKING SERVER WITHOUT HAMACHI.
MY HOSTS FILE
(C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc)
Open it with Notepad
# Copyright © 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 Your DynDNS Address
Internal IP Your DynDNS Address
External IP Your DynDNS Address
You can get a DynDNS address from DynDNS.com
Your Internal IP can be found here:
Go to START>Run. Now type 'cmd' (without the ').
Now type 'ipconfig' in the window (again, without the ')
You should see something similar to this:
Ethernet adapter Wireless Network Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix - : lan
IP Address - - - - - - - - - - - - - - : This is your Internal IP
Subnet Mask - - - - - - - - - - - - - : ***.***.***.*
Default Gateway- - - - - - - - - - - : ***.***.*.***
Your External IP can be found by going here in IE or Firefox (or whatever internet browser you use):

NOTE: I’ve now updated these .conf files for the new AC Web Ultimate Repack 6.0
MY LOGONSERVER.CONF FILE
Can be found...
(C:\AC Web Ultimate Repack\Ascent)
Open it with Notepad
# LogonDatabase Section
#
# These directives are the location of the `realms` and `accounts`
# tables.
#
# LogonDatabase.Host - The hostname that the database is located on
# LogonDatabase.Username - The username used for the mysql connection
# LogonDatabase.Password - The password used for the mysql connection
# LogonDatabase.Name - The database name
# LogonDatabase.Port - Port that MySQL listens on. Usually 3306.
# LogonDatabase.Type - Client to use. 1 = MySQL, 2 = PostgreSQL, 3 = Oracle 10g
#
<LogonDatabase Hostname = "localhost"
Username = "root"
Password = "ascent"
Name = "logon"
Port = "3306"
Type = "1">
# Host Directive
#
# This is the address that the realmlist will listen on.
# To listen on all addresses, set it to 0.0.0.0
# Default: 127.0.0.1 (localhost)
#
# Note: ISHost is the interserver communication listener.
#
<Listen Host = "0.0.0.0"
ISHost = "0.0.0.0"
RealmListPort = "3724"
ServerPort = "8093">
NOTE: For this version of the repack (AC Web Ultimate Repack 6.0) you wont need to change your MaxClient build section in the logonserver.conf file as the server will already accept clients from 2.1.1 (build 6739) to 2.1.3 (build 6898). So leave that section alone for the time being.

Just make sure everything looks like mine, and change only what I've told you to change.
DO NOT mess about with anything else, not unless you know what you're doing, but if you're reading this then you probably don't :P
IF YOU STILL CAN'T CONNECT AFTER ALL THIS THEN THE PROBLEM WILL BE WITH YOUR PORTS.
