Make sure the server /client versions are compatible. If you are current with live your server will have to be at least (from my own experience) 5.7DR2 source code from 5-9 through the 5-15. I'm running 5-9 with all clients patched to live as of the 5-12 patch.
I never get into my server on the first attempt. I get "bounced" as I call it back to the server screen, and my server screen shows 2 lines both saying
Logged in local: Loderunner
Logged in local: Loderunner
When I see this on the server screen I know I'm getting kicked back to the server screen, at which point clicking play again takes me straight in. Not sure why this happens since the two PC's are side by side on a 100 mbit network connection. <shrug>
my 2 cents, hope you glean some value from my ramblings.
