Server hosting with 2 Nics.. anyone?

Thu Mar 13, 2003 1:16 am by Shastman

I am hosting my server on a pc with 2 nics.. the problem I'm having is that the game is binding to the wrong one! the internet connection only works with my network connection 2, and the first one is used to share with my laptop. Now when I start my game its IP is the local address of 192.168.0.1.. I don't want that.. anyone know?

From what I understand FL has issues with computers that have 2 NICs. It's written up in the readme file that's installed with the game.

Yeah. I read that, but the fix is only for ICS for Win98. I am running windows XP, guess Microsoft has too much faith in their new OS

for some reason internet sees server even though computers in my room show the internal network ip.. so no complaints.. it works.. my bro 2hrs away from me is playing so something must be working

Right. Your LAN clients will find the server on the LAN and the global server, but display the LAN address instead of the global address.
