LAN Server

Is it possible to run a LAN game with a server and a client on one machine and a client on a second machine? Using the same CD key?

Nope, both installs of the game look for the disc, I even tried to map my cdrom as a drive on the other computer, no go, the disc has to be in a local drive.

also once the game has loaded to the main menu you don't need the disc in the drive so all you need to do is load one game and move the disc to the other machine.
