Subnet Mask issue
----------
I'm one big noob so here's the whole story:
I've went through the windows xp VPN server procedure succefully. I created users, my friends can connect, everything peachy.

The purpose of this VPN between me and my friends is to make us able to play Starcraft on a local network protocol (UDP).

From other sources I've found out that the subnet mask needs to be 255.255.255.0 in order for "broadcasting to be available" or something like that but if I type ipconfig in the command line all the connections have 255.255.255.255 set as the subnet mask.

So the questions is:
How can I change the subnet mask for the incoming connections?
