I know the chances of getting an answer are remote but I was wondering if anyone knew what TCP/UDP ports were used for the LAN mode play for for the Mac version of Warcraft II BattleNet Edition.
I was just hoping to avoid having to set-up a game between 2 of my classic macs connected to an old school ethernet hub and having another machine with wireshark capture the traffic.
So the gem of the idea behind why I am trying to get this information is because I found out that the GOG version of Warcraft 2 BNE uses a IPX wrapper to re-encapsulate its traffic into UDP packets. And if the port that this IPX wrapper uses can be changed I figured it would be a cool experiment to see if you can change the port to mac the port that the Mac version of Warcraft 2 uses in its TCP/IP net play mode and get a Vintage Mac to play a LAN game of Warcraft 2 with a modern machine.
At this point my googling has led me to believe that no one has tried this sort of thing and that I am definitely in uncharted territory. But I figured I would throw the question out there just in case
Cheers
