Hello
I did the tutorial on how to set up a IPX game. Its working, but the one im hosting the game with cannot find the other players. Instead it keeps searching for players while the rest are playing "both clients". Is the hoster dedicated?
Everyones Socket number is 6113
edit: Well It worked once but...:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOST:
z:\> ipx=true
z:\> mount h c:\games\dukenukem3d
Drive H is mounted as local directory c:\games\dukenukem3d
z:\> ipxnet startserver
IPX Tunneling utility for DosBox
IPX Tunneling Server Started
Then I "Start Host Game" > Some of the text coming up in the window is "IPX Tunneling Server Faild To Start" or something like that.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CLIENT's:
z:\> ipx=true
z:\> mount h c:\games\action\dukenukem3d
Drive H is mounted as local directory c:\games\action\dukenukem3d\
z:\> ipxnet connect xxx.xx.xxx.xxx
IPX Tunneling utility for DosBox
IPX Tunneling Client failed to connect to server at xxx.xx.xxx.xxx
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now im not sure whats wrong...

try
ipxnet startserver 2000
and for the connects add the port number as well
the message tunneling server failed to start must be fixed first. without that fixed there is no use trying to start clients.

--------------------------------------------------------------
HOST:
z:\> "ipxnet startserver 2000"
No "faild" messages in "Start Host Game" so that part worked ;)
--------------------------------------------------------------
CLIENT's:
z:\> "ipxnet connect xxx.xx.xxx.xxx 2000" worked in DosBox but gave me a faild message in "Start Client Game". I tryed out diffrent commands without any luck.
"connect xxx.xx.xxx.xxx"
"connect xxx.xx.xxx.xxx:2000"
"connect xxx.xx.xxx.xxx 2000"
--------------------------------------------------------------
It is only the HOST who need to open the port on the router? Clients doesnt have to?

Worked ;) Thanks alot ;) Lets hope it lasts
