SYMPTOMS
When you start a private Allegiance Server game on your local area network (LAN), players who want to join may be unable to find the LAN game in Allegiance.



CAUSE
This issue may occur if one of the following conditions is true:
 * The version of Allegiance Server installed on the LAN server does not match the version of Allegiance installed on the player's computer.
 * The first three segments of the IP addresses for the player's computer do not match the first three segments of the IP addresses for the server.



Check the Client and Server IP Addresses
Make sure that the first three segments of the IP address for the player's computer match the first three segments of the IP address for the server. Only the last segment of the IP addresses can be different.

The following table shows the results of several example combinations of IP addresses:

To determine the IP address for your computer:
 * 1) Click Start, and then click Run.
 * 2) In the Open box, type winipcfg, and then click OK.
 * 3) In the adapter box, click the adapter that you want to use to play Allegiance.
 * 4) In the IP Address box, note your IP address.
 * 5) Click OK.
