Ive never played over a LAN before but can you get other tcp/ip games working over your LAN? Have you tried an internet game at all? Youll need to replace the servers.dat file in ...\Call To Power 2\ctp2_program\ctp before you can enter a lobby though, and only the nlink lobby works, and its usually empty, best to arrange a game.

No one play in the Lan lobby, go into the internet lobby and connect to nl.ink (after youve updated your .dat file).
The lobby is often empty but there are usually a few players there around 8pm GMT - 12pm GMT.
You can arrange games via the lobby here (look at the MP Registry and message a few people)
If you want any more help or a game let me know.

Lan multiplayer is only for playing the game over Pc's that are linked together in their own network - It's not the same as internet play, so use the other multiplayer option(IPX? Its been a while..) if you want to play over the internet. You've got the correct files now so it should be ok.(So don't try the LAN setup options,unless you've got a few pc's physically linked together?.)
