Hi! Im new in this forum. I have similar problem. I want to play in LAN with a windows xp pc. Wine: 1.1.17 Linux: Kubuntu 8.10 Hosts file: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 user When I open the multiplayer window I can see myself twice from my pc and i can see the windows user. We can talk. But when i create the game in linux pc, the windows user can join, but in few seconds connection fails :S If windows user creates the game, i cant join, always connection timed out. It s strange, because we can speak in the chat, but after the windows user joins in my game.. it fails. Any solution? Thank u, and sorry for my bad english, im spanish :)
