...I read that the patch is included in Alan Cox's companion patch. I did
use that. I admit that I wouldn't no what to look for in the source to see
if in fact it is there.
I've actually come a bit closer to doing what I wanted to do though. I had
been using autofw with ipchains and tried portfw to see if there was an
improvement. However, it seems that autofw was reluctant to let go of port
6112 even after flushing the autofw table. I could join a game after I
changed to portfw, re-ran rc.firewall, and rebooted. It seems as if that's
all set now. That was the only thing I could think of...I changed nothing
else.
Next is figuring out how to run FSGS and SC on the same internal machine. I
can do so and join a game but not host...weird It's not so big a problem
now...just an annoyance (I won't let it beat me!).
Thanks very much for replying.
Regards,
Jeff

Have you tried using the LooseUDP patch?
