|    Wifi peer-to-peer networking tricks    |
|    27 Mar 20 20:45:56    |
      Say there are 10 university students in a dorm, with Wifi laptops, who want to       play a multiplayer video game - how is this to be done? ie. their laptops       connected TOGETHER, so that they can play the game? Assume that they are not       connected to THE        internet, and there is no "central server" - if the game requires one, then       one of the laptops will have to be designated the one to run the "server       software", and the whole thing goes from there.       They'll be running Linux (smart people as they are :) ), but if one or 2 of       the laptops are Windoze, and you can explain that, THAT would be great as       well.... :)              How? :)                            Thanx, dudes and dudettes :)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
