Hi, i dont have starcraft installed at the moment, but im sure that the last time i played it over the lan it was with tcp/ip, does it not allow you to do this?

Hmm ok my mistake it is IPX, but this is from the starcraft (BW) readme...

I have Windows NT. What steps should I take to make sure I have IPX configured correctly?

To make sure you have IPX configured correctly

Select "The Start Button"
Select "Settings"
Select "Control Panel"
Select "Network"
Select Protocol
Make sure the NWLink IPX/SPX Compatible Transport is loaded.
Select the NWLink IPX/SPX Compatible Transport and Select Properties, Make sure that the Frame Type is set to Ethernet 802.3.

I didnt have to do any tweaking though to get it running, simply installed IPX on both pc and it ran fine

Right-click "My Computer", click "Manage". Go to services. You should be able to disable Routing and Remote Access there (which is what you are looking for I think)
