I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.

Please Help me with making a multiplayer game!!!

Are both of you on the same LAN?
Admin pro tempore on 0gb.us:30000. Ask me if you have a problem, or just want help.
This is a signature virus. Add me to your signature so that I can multiply.
Now working on my own clone, Mosstest.
I guess I'm back for some time.

I think all he wants to do is play with a far away friend in multiplayer on a personal map.

I'm confused about this as well, and I consider myself somewhat tech savvy. I've read this tutorial here: http://wiki.minetest.com/wiki/Setting_up_a_server and I've even run the bash file, which quite honestly the terminal didn't really tell me what it was doing.
it just doesn't answer a lot questions for me? Do I need a domain i.e. linux "LinuxGaming.us?" Is this public? Does it just show up in the minetest list? if so under what name? I don't see a place to put a name, or what setting in minetest determines the name. the world name?
What I want to do is like Sparkly here, I want to set up a private game between my friends, and whoever we invite. Do I just start a multiplayer and give them my IP address? Is that secure? if someone else logs in can I kick them out? I could think of more questions

Use Remobo. Just look on the Remobo website and it'll tell you that you can play LAN games with firends via it. Download and install, then get going.
