I'm not sure entirely on the procedure, but I do know that each computer attached to the LAN needs a different key code and therefore another copy of the game.
Don't think you know all the answers.

First, and I'm assuming you've done this, make sure the LAN connections are all secure, and that every computer can see the other. I've been to a few LANs in my times, and this is often the leading cause of a bad LAN.

Next, go to the multiplay option, and it should give you the option between loading/starting a new LAN game from that menu. After that, it's simply a matter of ensuring everyone's versions are compatable and so forth.

It might also be advisable to make one computer a server (if you have enough PCs that is) it can really speed up your game...I haven't done this with NWN but it works great with alot of other games.....
