[cod] COD2 Linux Server Help Needed :)

Just thinking out loud still, have never dealt with portforwarding on
servers, but wouldn't you specify the "lan" IP (i.e something like
192.168.x.x) address on the +set net_ip x.x.x.x still rather than let it
take localhost (127.0.0.1) as the IP? Thats still my first thought that
looks wrong, but might just look wrong as never messed with that side.
