Delta Force/Delta Force2 on Win2000 LAN ?

[ofelas 0]

...got Delta Force & Delta Force 2(both run on LAN/IPX), plus-

 

1/ 2 computers running Win 2000 Pro;

2/ 2 network cards(a=10mbps RJ45, b=10/100 RJ45)

3/ RJ45 crossed cable(no hub)

4/ 2 default Local Area connections (installed by the OS during setup)

5/ IPX,TCP/IP,etc.installed as I sometimes transfer files (successfully !!)

6/ Latest 3Com & D-link drivers

7/ No firewall software

 

The multiplayer game starts fine on the host machine with the CD;when the client tries to join the multiplayer game,it crashes with the error message "cannot create player-server may be full"

Delta Force runs fine on the seial cable multiplayer option-DF2 lacks serial play.

Any pointers on creating an additional Delta Force specific LAN connection/configuring my existing connection/plain ol' solution ??

 

Novalogic's phone support was baffled; no replies to my e-mails over 2 weeeks.

TIA to all you folks.
