Is there any system for playing Descent 1 or 2 over the Internet on Linux? Apparently, the IP support in Descent 1 does not work well over the Internet, and most playing of Descent 1, 2 is over Kali, which, AFAIK, is both a payed service and is not available for Linux. -- Jeremy Maitin-Shepard

Yes, that would work, but are there any online Descent communities that use that? -- Jeremy Maitin-Shepard

Also, there don't seem to be many communities of Descent players, except on networks like Kali. -- Jeremy Maitin-Shepard
