Thanks guys! Turns out it was user error as much as anything. My son was setting up the Windows server using Broodwar and UDP. I was running, at the time, an install from the Broodwar CD for the Linux box. That install showed only IPX as an option for joining so it didn't work, as expected. Once I went to BattleNet to get an update for Broodwar UDP became and option, I joined the Windows server and most everything is running fine. I am having some problems with parts of the audio coming through as static, but the game itself plays great so far.
We also tried it the other way around with the Linux box being the server and letting Windows clients join. That seems to work fine also. Thanks alot for the info. Very helpful. Cheers, Mark On 8/14/06, Ryan Tandy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

UDP in Starcraft works fine for me, however, although this is with regular Wine rather than Cedega. Try running from a console rather than using the Cedega GUI, and see if you get any error messages. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
