we have a computer that runs linux and a computer that runs windows, on both spring runs fine but i get confused by TASServer, the instructions seem very vaugue, we have a functional LAN that does not require a password or username, so im just asking what steps i have to go through to get this workin, i have TASServer on both computers and i dont like how it just runs from the command line but it seems to be the only thing that really works well with linux, if anyone can offer a good alternative that would still be compatible with playing with the windows machine that would be great, in short i dont care how, i just want to play spring between these two computers

i also have AFLobby on the linux machine, would that work somehow by using the local host option?

run tasserver on one PC in lan mode.
redirect all the lobbies to connect to that computer
connect and host game on one of the computers
all join then play.
You might want to think about using tasclient in wine untill someone can get a new unitsync working for the new java binding so I can do a beta 1 release with fixed script generation.

if possible could u go through a little more description on that process, like i can get the server running on lan mode but what steps do i need to make after its sitting there and says waiting for connections
i will look up that other lobby right now as well,
