[SDL] SDL_net: Is mine broken?

Hey,

I've been trying to get networking up on WinXP (mingw), but I've run into some problems.  I built SDL_net myself, so that might have something to do with it.  I'm able to connect with myself using "localhost", but connecting by IP address gives a failure.  I tried with a friend and instead of failure it was crashing.  So I built Sam's chat demo to test that (on my single machine).  The server outputs: Server IP: 0, 38283
If the host field is zero, does that mean there's a big error somewhere (probably from my build)?  I can still connect on this too, using "localhost".  Does anyone have an idea or a recent WinXP build of libSDL_net.a and SDL_net.dll?
