Skook Posted January 27, 2002 Share Posted January 27, 2002 Hey gang, Not sure if anyone can help me here but figure it's worth a try. To start: 1.5 P4 / W 850 chipset ATI all in wonder Raedon 32 512 RAM Had no problem playing when this was the only computer. I put in a LAN card and hooked up a second comp, through a switch and have been unable to host a game since?? I can join someone elses but not host. I do run a Zone Alarm Pro firewall on the main comp. that I beleive I have set-up properly giving CM server and local access. Any idea's out there? Thx much 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted January 27, 2002 Share Posted January 27, 2002 How do you hook up to the internet ? What IP address do you give out when you host ? Was Zone Alarm installed when you didn't have problems ? Is your switch used in your Internet access ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pford Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 Are you using NAT? That appears to mess up hosting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skook Posted January 30, 2002 Author Share Posted January 30, 2002 Hey gents, Thanks for the prompt reply guys. I have tracked it down actually. Turns out I did not have Zone Alarm configured properly to give each computer their respective IP's. To answer your questions though Schrul, yes I had Zone Alarm before and used the IP the game gave me with no problems. The game now gives me two IP's but I did not have ZA set up to direct the right one properly. The main computer is hooked up directly to the cable modem and acts as a gateway for the second, which is hooked up to it via a switch. Appreciate your help:) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
