Problem creating characters..

Hi guys, i`ve just started moving into multiplayer modding and have started a server using FLserver.exe
The problem is that whenever i add new character the server comes up saying that the name is already taken. Now this is my server so i know for sure that there are no other players created on it. I`m guessing that there is aproblem with the newcharacter.ini file or mpnewcharacter.fl.
I have edited the mpnewcharacter.fl as i`ve added about 20 factions but have only made minor changes. The newcharacter.ini file has been replaced and i have checked that there is a loadout for the game to use. But still no go, anybody got any ideas? It wud be appreciated..

Actually, about 5 mins after posting the thread I edited the mpnewchar.ini thing and took away the initial reputation for the new factions. It seems to be ok, I`m not sure what will happen when i meet the factions, they`ll probably be neutral but its an mprovement at least for now..
