How can i make the client search for the active sessions before it connects to one, and allow the user to choose among them? Is there anyway other than using a data base? 
Upon my end shall I begin?

Thanx Excessus  , I do have the Pro version. Quote:
But you will need a central server with a static IP adress that has a list (RDBMS, textfile, ..) of IP adresses of gameservers.
but what i need for my MP game is to work on any LAN (whether the LAN is connected to the internet or not; like GLIDER does), so i can't use a static server IP address. 
Upon my end shall I begin?

Hmm, I remember reading the default portnumber somewhere but I can't remember. I'm pretty sure it is documented somewhere (try a forum search aswell). However, there is a commandline switch for setting the servers' portnumber. This is what the manual says: Quote:
-port number Through this command line option, a port address for TCP/IP client/server communication can be given. Valid ports are in the range 2300..2400. If no port is given, a default port address is assigned. A port address can only be given for the server - the client will connect to the right port automatically.
