I run my pc through a server connected to the internet, and my net
connection uses windows standard internet connection sharing over XP on a
ASDL line.

However I want to directly link my pc to a friends (who has same exact set
up as me but in differnt location) to play C&C Generals & other games
together but he needs my remote IP, every find ip site I use brings up the
servers ip and I  need to find the one for my computer so he can connectt to
me, Can anybody  with the knoledge please let me know.

I have tryed running ipconfig and ip finding sites and we only get the IPs
of the servers which is no good, we have also tryed to setup a standard VPN
over windows between the two servers but still have no luck as they wont
connect, were complely stumped and any help would be brillaint.

Thankyou,
David.

other "fake" network between us over the  net? could you please help.
