Hey Ming, does this mean we can now jack in your iBook and do 3 from your basement?

That should be the case now. I think up to 5.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

Yes... as long as you have the game loaded on your machine, you can just plug into my switch and be assigned an IP. Up to 5 IP addresses are available in the basement now.Keep on Civin'

Yeah... it should work as long as you have loaded civ on it.
I am looking forward to the next Apolyton meet at my place.

Ming -- As you know, my laptop is a non-Civ Zone. that's why I would need to use the ibook. (I know the game is loaded and that you prefer to use your "real" machine).
so one of these nights when "other games" mode is not happening...

I had civ loaded on mine, but I'd have to verify patches and such. Who knows, on a quiet night maybe all three of us could play.
Maybe I'll bring it Friday and we can check it out. Do you have an extra cable? I don't since we've never hooked it up.

Thanks! Yet another grain of Civ II information learned.
The port number might become useful know-how in the future. Will store it in the notepad. So far I haven't needed anything, as I have static public IP addresses (that's why creating DLs isn't really a good idea, because Ming would easily bust me ) and no NAT gimmicks.

My network guy was thrilled to hear that the actual port number was identified... he said it saved him a lot of work knowing what it was. A real keeper!Keep on Civin'

I can testify it was a pain. Port scanners are better these days though.

I can't host either. Also on XP. When I look up my IP, it says 192.168.0.6, but that doesn't appear to be right. I don't have the benefit of network guys to help me out.Captain of Team Apolyton - ISDG 2012
