I have one Cd, used for the host. Does the client need a cd? I have the client on a full install so the client can play without the cd. When I set to IPX multiplayer the host and the client show the the host on the LAN but neither host nor client show the client. The host only shows one player. Do I need to HEX edited the client? I saw a reccomendation for this at dejanew and in this ng but I'm not sure if this is the solution to my specific problem or not. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Toons

Make sure both of the computers are set to the same subnet address and Frame type as well..... I like to use Subnet 1 and frame type ethernet 802.3...... All of this can be found in your Network properties in your control panel. Highlight the IPX Protocol and choose advanced options. Make sure both computers are set with the same settings. Hope this helps Gregg

Try this site http://home.earthlink.net/~tsatwood/index.html They have a good guide to settiing up a tcp/ip lan and using ipx under dos. Worked like a charm or me. Kenny
