15. Repeat steps 8-14 for Authentication, CabalCash, CabalGuild, cabalmanager, EventData, NetcafeBilling, and Server01 databases. Be sure you name them the correct names and restore from the associated devices. MAKE SURE YOU GO SLOW AND YOU WILL NOTICE WHEN YOU CLICK RESTORE DATABASE THE "TO DATABASE" MAY CHANGE AND YOU MAY HAVE TO CHANGE IT TO THE DATABASE YOU ARE ATTEMPTING TO RESTORE When you are done it should look like this:

11. Now right click CentOS in Vbox and click Clone. Name it CentOS backup. That will back CentOS up incase you mess anything up so you dont have to go through the long process again. This cloneing process can take a long time. So once again make sure your PC doesnt turn off. Go workout, go do parkour, go make sweet love to your special someone, or your hand. And then return back to this guide!

Now click the putty icon in WinSCP (its under the word Sessions at the top. Looks like your PuTTy.exes icon. A pop up will ask you are you sure. Hit Run.

6. Several minutes later in WinSCP ensure on the right side you are in CentOS's root folder. On the left side navigate to where you extracted Ep8repack to. Mine is C:\CABAL\ep8repack\. highlight everything in you ep8repack folder and hit f5: copy a popup will pop up. Hit Copy.
7. Once step 6 is done open Putty again. now type "./cabal_install.sh" it will ask if you want to begin the installation. Hit Y then enter. It will ask are you sure hit Y then enter.
8. Now that the files are installed type "service cabal config". Open CMD and type in "ipconfig" and hit enter. At the top you should see a ip. Use that as the MSSQL server ip in Putty and hit enter. For the SQL user type sa and hit enter. Then put your MSSQL pass and hit enter. Now open up your internet. Google search what is my ip. You will see a IP. Put that in putty and hit enter. Now type in "service cabal start" on they all say OK then the server is started.
Some times services will stop. Just type "service NAME HERE start" example "service ChatNode_01 start" to start ChatNode_01 service.
Setting Up the Client
*** You will need a EP8 Client you can refer to this page and the Client patch here ***
1. Install the Ep8 Client you downloaded.
2. Extract the CabalClientPatch_DARKSTEELMAN.rar to your pc. Edit the internal file in the Data folder to your CentOS ip. You should know it already. If not open CentOS or in PuTTy type ifconfig. Use that. Save internal.
3. Copy the Data folder and the cabal_start.bat and paste it in your Cabal ep8 client folder.
