1. As far as I know, yes. Unless you are using the cheat-prevention tip beppo suggested (that was posted on the main INF page), in which case the mac user needs to download and install the PC UTMenu files from this thread ;)

2. :con: I'm a little confused :) if he's on the other team, then he shouldn't be able to see your ping/time until the end of the match, if he can't see his own, then there's something wrong. If you mean that he can't see your server in the browser (I think this is what you mean, otherwise you wouldn't be asking Q1), then you may need to enable the "Advertise Server" option in the NET (?) screen, other than that, try giving him your IP address and having him direct connect to it :)

winipcfg -> yep, make sure you select the right thing from the drop down box ;) Then your buddy has to right click on the browser window and select "open address" (or whatever it's called), and enter your IP (and possibly port if you've changed it)

ps. u said that u could see the ping of hte opponant at the end of the match...---> my answer: realy never saw that :D
ummm...ah....err.....:D you could in 2.85, but you can't in 2.86, sorry about that :D
