[ENet-discuss] ENet-discuss Digest, Vol 68, Issue 9

[Brandon Dawson]

Could be a few issues. Most likely you are dealing with NAT issues, in which 
case you will have to setup some sort of NAT traversal method (look at STUN 
protocol).  As far as Mac -> PC, if the Mac PCs are using a PowerPC 
processor, the machine byte order is different than the I86 byte order, so 
make sure you are properly swapping values before sending packets. 
ENET_HOST_TO_NET_16 and ENET_HOST_TO_NET_32 should handle this in the enet 
layer, but you will have to do it internally for all of your data.
