Is there some trick to networking between LAN machines?
I want a client/server system on the network but I haven't a slightest about the IP.
I'd like to avoid dropped packets, so from my limited knowledge I'd go with TCP.
Etc.
How do I locate another machine via IP on a LAN? There are multiple machines on my LAN with the same external internet IP address.
Sorry for stupid questions but I have answered a lot of those in my day, so if you would kindly entertain my ignorance it would be much appreciated.
