Problem seeing servers on a LAN

Recommended Posts

I recently got together with my buddies this weekend and we were trying to do some JK2 over a LAN with 3 machines connected thru a router that I brought over.

 

We were able to see files on each other's machines, so I'm sure the connections were all good. 2 of us were running Win XP and the other was running Win2k and Windows ME on a dual boot.

 

After trying everything we could think of, the only thing we were able to do was play together on the Win XP machines. We tried making servers on both of the XP machines but the Win2k machine couldn't see the server. We also tried making the Win2k machine the server but we couldn't find any local servers from the XP machines.

 

Like I said, we WERE able to share files between all of the machines, so I'm absolutely sure that the connection between them was working fine, but for some reason the game just wouldn't cooperate.

 

Does anyone have some ideas what we were doing wrong??? Maybe suggest some troubleshooting ideas that I could try?
