  • And if anyone’s interested in what prompted the writing of this guide, I wanted to play Palworld but didn’t know the IP address of the local PC my server is on. I was also really lazy to get the IP address from the PC itself, so I decided to use nmap to scan my local network and find the PC that way. Found out nmap is not installed by default so I had to install it somehow and then I remembered that SteamOS added the /nix directory to its exceptions that survive across upgrades.

    In short, instead of taking two minutes to get the IP address I spent over half an hour getting nix to work. And decided to share in case it helps others.
