The easy route:
1) Find out the IP on computer 1
2) Use it instead on 127.0.0.1
3) You teh win!
The not so easy route:
1) Server broadcasts that it is running and waiting for clients
2) The clients listens to broadcast packets
3) The client shows a list of running games
4) Connect
5) Yay!
The last method depends on what library you use. If I remember correctly you could send a message to another "magic" address and it would be automatically broadcasted over the LAN. But I have never done this before so I'm not sure.
