Post subject: the xone is ok but.......i cant get in while inside the LAN

I have 2 PCs at home in a LAN.

I had some ppl in the test zone (from outside the LAN) so it seems ok.

But i cant get in from my other PC.

In few words.....Internet players can get in, Lan players cant. Why?

btw 3 more things....

1) Firewalls disabled

2) The host PC (1st) is the one that provides the internet.

3) I can play in any other zone in the 2nd PC

Once you add the zone to your continuum list for others on the LAN, close continuum. Open the zone.dat file in your continuum folder, and change your zone's ip to the network one. Example:

Code: Show/Hide

MGB test zone,67.88.120.85,5000,,1
#this is a test zone.

Goes to:

Code: Show/Hide

MGB test zone,192.168.1.1,5000,,1
#this is a test zone.

You should rename it too, otherwise when you use the directory server, it will update the IP.
