HOW TO PLAY

       First decide who will host the game. (you or your friend/opponent)

       Now the one who is going to host the game must (do the following):

       1. run nettoe (Doh)

       2. choose the option 3 (Two players over network) from the Main Menu

       3. choose the option 1 (Host the Game) from the Network Game Menu

       4. type in his name or nickname (NO BLANK SPACES ALLOWED).

       5. comunicate the IP address to the other player.  ( hostname also works... if resolved, of course) ( I hope you know how to  get  your	IP
       address...)

       6. Just wait for the other player to connect to your host.

       Now for the other player (the one who is going to connect to the hosted game ):

       1. run nettoe (really ?, Yaeh relly.)

       2. choose the option 3 (Two players over network) from the Main Menu

       3. choose the option 2 (Connect to a host) from the Network Game Menu

       4. type your name or nickname (NO BLANK SPACES ALLOWED).

       5. type in the IP address of the host or the hostname.  IP address examples: 192.168.0.5, ::1
       Hostname example  : myfriend.hostname.com (must be a valid hostname)

       6. Just wait for the game to start .

       Enjoy. And if you have any problem just let me know.

NETWORK PORTS

       netToe uses tcp-port 7501 for listening port of the server engine.  Thus this port must be transportable across the network, possibly pass-
       ing routers in the path.  For a local game this is of course mostly irrelevant.

NAME

       pioneers-server-gtk - graphical game server for Pioneers

SYNOPSIS

       pioneers-server-gtk [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the pioneers-server-gtk command.

       Pioneers  is  an  implementation of the popular, award-winning "Settlers of Catan" board game for the GNOME desktop environment.  It uses a
       client/server model for networked play of between two and eight players.  This program provides a GUI-configurable stand-alone server which
       you connect to from pioneers itself.

OPTIONS

       Pioneers accepts the standard GTK+ commandline options.

ENVIRONMENT

       The default settings of the server can be influenced with the following three environment variables:

       PIONEERS_META_SERVER
	      The hostname of the meta-server when no meta-server is specified in the user interface. (The settings file takes precedence)

       PIONEERS_SERVER_NAME
	      The hostname of the server.  If it is not set, the hostname is determined by hostname(1).  (The settings file takes precedence)

       PIONEERS_DIR
	      The path to the game definition files.  If it is not set, the default installation path will be used.

FILES

       /usr/share/games/pioneers/*.game and $XDG_DATA_HOME/pioneers/*.game
	      Game definitions
       /usr/share/pixmaps/pioneers-server.png
	      Game icon
       $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pioneers-server
	      Saved settings
       /usr/share/games/pioneers/computer_names
