I've been trying to get a game of the original campaign going with a friend and nothing we try works, at least not perfectly.
We're both using the client extension to browse the servers at: http://www.nwnlist.com/
I can create a game which he can direct connect to and eventually that game does turn up in the server list, the problem is we don't want me to be the host, we want him to be the host. I've played through NWN2's campaigns and he hasn't so we want him to be the main character which as far as I can tell means being the host of the game.
The problem is I can't connect to his games, it just times out every time I've tried and the servers he creates don't turn up in the lists like mine does.
We've both set our port forwarding like in moonsong's guide (actually my friend could connect fine to me even before I messed with my ports) and we've experimented with Hamachi and Tindeck to try to get it to work over LAN with no change in the results we get.

Is there anything we might be missing? Is it possible to host and set another person as the main character? suggestions would be appreciated.

Incidentally I'm using the steam version and he got his from Good 'ol Games.

Does he have an exception for NWN2 in his firewall?

Yes, we've actually tried disabling both our firewalls entirely to no effect.
