Use MultiMC or Prism Launcher to connect - ensure you’re using Beta 1.7.3, not the release version. (Toggle the “betas” filter and select “b1.7.3” when creating your instance)

Once you are whitelisted, the server is accessible at oldschoolmc.live:25566

Whitelist application is here (After submitting, you should be whitelisted within 12-24 hours, if not sooner)

Rules are on the website

    ooh yeah, this is a good suggestion.

    it’d be easy to select release 1.7.3 instead of beta accidentally in MultiMC, and that’d line up with some of the server responses i’ve seen so far.

    Collin, note the “betas” filter has to be ticked when making your instance in MultiMC to see the right version (this is a screenshot from Prism, but their UI here is identical)

      After further testing, this is almost definitely what happened. I get the exact same error messages and server responses as Collin was getting when attempting to load into the server with r1.7.3

        Oh man I feel like a dunce. Thank you for all the help though. I am glad that I was able to be a lab rat so any other interested players can avoid similar issues. I’ll be able to get on at some point today and establish my presence on the server!
