Locating server on network

I am trying to run the latest ver of FC on Linspire using Crossover Artist. After an evening of trial and error, I managed to install the client. The login box comes up when I click the FC icon on my desktop (or go through Crossover) and I get the "Locating server on network" message, but that is the end of it. It just hangs there with periodic drive activity. I am assuming that this has something to do with my network settings, but I cannot seem to find a combination that works. If anyone has a suggestion, I would certainly appreciate it. I need this app for my work and I would love to be able to access it on a Linspire computer. It is the only hold that Microsoft has on me at this point.

Worked it out. I am not sure why, but it works fine if you put the URL in the settings file instead of the IP number of the server.
