Peer-to-peer game with one cdrom?

[unmerged(11271)]

Hi.
I thought it would be fun if me and my daughter could play EUII on our two computers (both running win98 in a peer-to-peer network). I only have on cdrom, but that's no problem with a lot of other games (like AOK with up to 4 players per cd).

But it just doesn't work! I have the scandinavian version with same patch on both machines. I start the game on one computer, start hosting multiplayer session, take the cd to start the game on the other computer, enters multiplayer and then I just can't see the hosted game on the first computer.

Questions:
1. Can this work? What do I need to do?
2. Is it legal? I can't tell from the manual og from this website.

Not impossible that the game don't work unless you have 2 CDROMS..many games works like that..:-/

My version does not require CD rom during play. I have Czech version with 1.05 UK update. But this won't help you
