There are lots of ways to do it, but try this:  Start your server (on his
end or on your end, no matter) and don't advertize it, or password protect
it.  That way, either it won't be in the server list or only someone with
the password can get in.

re-reading that makes it sound confusing.  Let me say that again
)  - - -  -  Either do not advertize the game and then make sure you tell
the other player what IP to connect to.  Or, password protect your game so
that only the person who knows the password can connect.

Yus, you, or him, needs to run a server locally. "Start new 
multiplayer game". Then give him the IP and he can "Open Location" to 
get there.

Don't run a dedicated server in another session or you'll find your 
ping gets stupidly high at times.

Is there a version of UT server for linux? I'm also only using a 56k
modem, so will that have an effect?

Kind regards,

There is a Linux version of entire UT, which includes the server and the
client. Runs a lot better than on Windoze, I can tell you that!

I don't understand you.

You are going to run a game server on a 56k modem ??? Don`t
even try it , the person connecting to your server running
on a 56k modem will get a unplayable ping of at least 600..

With MDK 9.1 using a GeForce2 MX I get frame rates not much slower
than guys running GeForce4 MX's under Windows!

I didn't explain very clearly, cos I wasn't sure what I needed to do to
play an online 1-on-1 game. I know now that I just need to start a new
multiplayer game whilst online, and give my remote mate the dynamically
assigned IP address I'm attached with. He just needs to open that
location to join the game...

A 3rd dude might wanna join our little fragfest, so if my machine is the
host will my modem bandwidth affect game response? (we all have 56k
modems, ie...slow net access!)

Our scenery for sure is in places breathtaking, but I discovered today
that working Kiwis average only 26 paid holidays from work per year.
Only Americans get fewer holidays during their working year with 23
days, but the Italians get 41 paid holidays average per year! I'm off
to Milan or Rome!

Kind regards,

Chris Wilkinson, Middle Earth, New Zealand.

I don't have any experience in this, but I can't imagine that your
friends will have a good ping. I'd stick to 1-on-1. You can always give
it a try of course to see how things work out.

Telling him your IP and having him type "connect x.x.x.x" into his console will do it (or whatever the command would be in the Unreal console). Also, the person hosting the server will have to open up TCP/UDP forwarding in their firewall or router to their IP on their LAN. I think the port for UT was 7777
