You need a physical null modem cable in order to make chessbase engines run automated on chess servers, the cable costs about 20$ and are easy to use, it can function between two comps aswell (if you have more than one comp) so you can make two comps play eachother. Using a cable is the only way to make CB engines work automated AFAIK. Regards Jonas
