Hi,

It seems that -ip option is ignored on Linux. Even when this option is specified, multiplayer starting screen still contains 127.0.0.1 as server address.
Fortunately server is listening not only at localhost, so you can connect to it by using connect command from client machine.
But because 127.0.0.1 is contained in udp packets sent from server, client can't connect to Linux server by choosing server from local servers list.
