Connecting NFS Most Wanted and Underground 2 on LAN

Focus of the post:-Connecting NFS on LAN requires minor editing in the default settings.

After successfully connecting my friends laptop to my desktop through a crosswire cable,i was not able to create a server in LAN mode of NFS Most Wanted.Although everything was connected fine,file and printer sharing was enabled multiplayer mode repeatedly gave the message"Creating Server" and then ended.I had to manually edit the "server.cfg" file in the games folder to replace the old IP address with the IP Address of my system.

TRUST=255.255.255.255
TRUST_MATCH=%%bind("192.168.1.7")

ACCOUNT=1
MASTER=1
SLAVE=1
REDIR=1

#
# This line allows the server to determine on what interface to listen for
# connections. It can be any publicly routable IP address (this is the case
# even if the host is on a LAN that is isolated from the Internet). There is
# no communication attempted with the IP address listed here.

ADDR=%%bind("192.168.1.7")

-Replace the IP address in quotes with your IP Address
-IP Address can be known by the "ipconfig" command
