mkwinco

Sure, I have installed cncnet on the Linux Host as well (it's using Wine) and as I wrote, the client can indeed connect to cncnet.org, but afterwards I cannot join the game of my friend, who is running his cncnet installation on Windows (allegedly our version of something differs, I have v1.36, he has v1.38, though I have no idea what this version number refers to). That is why I decided to replicate the same installation as he has on Windows. And there I hit this wall.

Well I can confirm the same issue with VMware® Workstation 15 Player on Ubuntu 16. (The guest is Win7) I am trying to play TS online and cannot connect to cncnet.org from client. (Meanwhile the site loads just fine in the browser.) I am also able to connect from the Linux host (the host) via client (I just cannot play with my friend as he has v1.38 on windows, while I have v1.36 on linux - which is probably a different story), so it is definetely not "in my NW" per se. I've also played around with the only setting I found - the port number in client, but to no avail and I have no idea where the logs for the client are, so I am kind of clueless. Has anyone any idea, why vmware hypervisors could interfere with cncnet client on guests?
