Portable RA LAN not working

[jlhill17]

So I downloaded and installed Portable RA the other day.  The singleplayer campaign and skirmish work fine, but multiplayer over LAN does not.  When I open the Multiplayer menu and click on Network it just takes me right back to the main menu.  It does this with or without the LAN patch enabled.  I tried in on Win 7 32 & 64 bit and neither works.  Any idea what's wrong?

start cncnet.exe once, it will create a new file called wsock32.dll, afterwards you should be able to use LAN too

That was it.  Thanks!
