Hello! I buy mini PC on windows, and make it dedicated server for pz 42mp. I want to connect to my server from my MacBook pro, by using localhost:16261 server address, but my pz on MacBook don't see my PC server.
If I use VPN on my MacBook, I can connect to my PC server by using external staticIP:16262 with no problems.
Both devices (PC and MacBook) connected with my router by wires.
How can I enter to my server on PC from my MacBook without using VPN? VPN has a huge ping(((

if you are on the same network on your laptop as you are on your host machine, you need to find the internal ip address of your hosting machine, not use localhost. localhost would only be if you are hosting and playing on the same machine.
As an example, if I have 2 computers in my house, and Computer A is hosting the PZ server, and Computer B is going to be playing on the PZ server, I need to find the internal IP address of Computer A and plug that into the IP Address field, not localhost.
Lets say you find out that your hosting machine has an internal ip address of 192.168.0.153.
Your PZ Server info will look like:
IP/Domain: 192.168.0.153
Port: 16261
Password: myPassword```My server PC and my MacBook, has the same addresses😀

Are you able to join your server from the PC that you use to host it? That would be a good first test
