Yes, another noob who can't get IPX to work. This is what I've done so far.
ipx=true.
Port 213 forwarded to my local ip, which is not changing.
Firewall allows DOSBox to do its thing.
LAN games work great.
Hamachi works for the Internet sometimes, but it's annoying.
And yet, no one can connect to anyone's server if they aren't on the LAN. WHY? Do the people on the client side also need to forward their ports? They shouldn't, if I understand it correctly.
Oh, and I'm on Windows 8.1
