i have a problem with the wow server. i did evrything in the guide. i port forowarded every port i need to. i have not problems when i run the server. but when i try to connect ot it with wow it just stays at connecting. all it does is says connection failed or what ever it is at the wow screen.

This guide was pretty clear and to the point, thanks for a great Tut.

One question though, how do I get Warlock pets to work? I can summon them , but they don't want to attack or follow orders. TBH, it seems this way with every single 2.4.3 setup I've tried so far.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Oh, +rep if I can

Thanks!

Really, this is an old guide and is quite a few revisions behind. Your best bet would be learning how to compile (I have another guide on these forums for Compiling ArcEmu).
Learning to compile will fix many bugs because it will be a far more updated core. If you run into any problems, ask on my other thread, or PM me.

Make sure you are running logon server and the world server at the same time.

# 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

# 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.
#

# Server console logging level
#
# This directive controls how much output the server will

# Default: 3

# RemotePassword

# not register.

# AllowedIPs
# This section MUST be completed, otherwise all attempts to link your servers will fail.
# These "Allowed" fields are a space-seperated list of CIDR-form IP addresses that are allowed
# to make server connections to your logonserver, and register realms.
# For example, everything in the 127.0.0.* range would be:
# 127.0.0.0/24, as 24 of the bits must match the 127.0.0.0
#
# To allow a single IP,
# 1.3.3.7/32, would allow only 1.3.3.7 to connect as 32 of the bits must match.
#
# AllowedModIPs
# In the same form as AllowedIPs, these are the IPs that are allowed to modify the database
# (adding bans, GMs, account permissions, etc)
