[pptp-server] poptop and windows gaming ?

[George Vieira]

Are you using an IP range which is the same as the LAN? If you don't then it
won't work, if you do then are you using `proxyarp` in your
/etc/ppp/options.pptpd file coz'. Many network games I've seen can allow
entering an IP to search for a server.

hi,i want to create several external vpn dialins to my local masqueraded
network, so that we are able to play multiplayer LAN games.
right now vpn dialin works good, pinging the internal and vpn ips works too.
but none of the testet games finds a lan-server.
all tested games use the M$ directplay tcp/ip networking interface. there
must be something like a broadcast message of a client to get a message from
all available game server, but i don't know anything of tcp/ip internal
messages...
would be great if there is a solution to this problem
greets
Marc
