No, You even do not need a network. I cant explain all the details about the
"autoplayer" but a good start is the Classic GUI. Go to autoplyer and choose a
Engine. Then you see a window where you have to set the timecontrol, book
...etc. There you chose "network". You need to specifie a master and a slave.
The master only gets a "." in the address field, the slave needs the lokal IP
address of the master. Normaly thats it.

The problem is: I just tried to start the Autoplyer with the current Version of
the Chessbase GUI (10 of January) and got a crash of the GUI instantly. I will
not invest a single minute to find out if or how it may work with Chessbase!

Bye
Ingo
