Well I have a Set IP on the server(both running xp) both network and a
automaticaly assign IP for the internet but ill I have for my connected pc
is my IP only for my network address.

There's no chance of being able to play the games on the servers as there
just basic machines.

The only way we have of being able to connect is via the servers but I have
no IP to beable to direct connect to, the same go for my friend.

Any Ideas?
