I give up. I simply cannot figure out how to join D3 games over Kali.
It looks as if I need to use the Internet Games feature of Kali since I 
can see games being played. If I right mouse click on a game and select
"connect" then go into the D3 multiplayer options, I do not see a game.
I tried IPX, serial and TCP/IP direct. I also noted the missions being 
played and DL's a few from planet descent. No luck. D2 works fine.

Please, what am I doing wrong? Do I need to manually record either IP or 
host name of the game and enter it into the D3 TCP/IP window? I could 
not get that to work either. IPX gave me an error like not found or 
something.

All I could find in forums confused me further. GameSpy, Gamesurge, IRC 
#Descent. I'm lost.

Thanks,
ZP
