Hahaha, so I just connect to your local IP and play instagib *lol*
But bad luck, there's no such server in my internal network ;-))

Wrong:
192.*.*.*.*
127.X.X.X
10.*.*.*.*

are all local IP's


# ifconfig
eth0_rename Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:14:5e:ca:42:37  
          inet addr:192.168.1.32  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

Sago007 is correct.  Go read about class A/B/C networks.

All with the exception of 192 and 172.
Freaking crap.

Anyway, don't have Quake4 and don't intend to ever download it as long as it isn't FOSS.

Probably sago makes a typo mistake : he meant 192 not 196 ... anyway you should read the linked rfc and if u are still not convinced , you could try to make a whois :

Code:
:~$ whois 192.246.40.28
PSINet, Inc. NETBLK-PSINET-C2 (NET-192-246-0-0-1)
                                  192.246.0.0 - 192.246.255.255
ID Software PSINET40-C2 (NET-192-246-40-0-1)
                                  192.246.40.0 - 192.246.40.255

# ARIN WHOIS database, last updated 2009-08-21 20:00
# Enter ? for additional hints on searching ARIN's WHOIS database.

( LOL ... ID software ? )


EDIT : anyway YOU are actually wrong . the 127.x.x.x range is reserved for referring LOCAL interface addresses not for Local/internal regular addresses.

EDIT2 : look

Supposed so, too.

You're correct in principle on 127.X., but it can be abused for local networking ;-)))

Not so easy indeed if u have some antispoof iptables/firewall rules.

okay, nevermind the IP: see if you can find (MAVERICK, WARLOK, instaGIB FUN!! ) game server. you can also search by name or clan.
