Here is the way to do it (its not obvious at all!)

On GOG.com (GOG Galaxy wont work to find the serial keys) go to GOG.com, click on ACCOUNT. Then click on LIBRARY.

Now click the arrow below Neverwinter Nights 2 Complete - select DOWNLOADS

In Downloads, click on the MORE arrow button then select SERIAL KEYS.

Copy and Paste the serial keys into the Multiplayer Keys window. When you paste then, check the END of each CD-KEY for spaces and remove any empty spaces at the beginning or end - spaces will cause your BUTTONS TO BE DISABLED because it sees them as invalid serial keys (this is stupid in my opinion).

If all the cd-keys are valid, the buttons will be enabled. If any spaces are in ANY of the cd-keys or any of the cd-keys are invalid in any way the buttons will not be enabled.

FrickusRuckus: Fixed problem.
1) NWN 2 keys do not have hyphens in the ini file. NWN 1 does have hyphens.
2) change the permissions on the ini file found in program(X86)\Atari\DnDNWNC\Neverwinter Nights II directory and edit, save that file with the new key.

Rhiyo: You will need to change your cd-key if you are playing multiplayer either on LAN or the internet.

Your multiplayer CD-Keys are stored in your owned games list, click on Neverwinter Nights 2, and they are listed under "My serial number:"

To manually change your CD-Key, go to where your Neverwinter Nights 2 was installed and open 'nwncdkey.ini' it will looking something like this (Obviously I have changed the keys to 0's):

[CDKEY]
Key1=00000-00000-00000-00000-00000-00000-00000 //This is your base Neverwinter Nights 2 cd-key
Key2=00000-00000-00000-00000-00000-00000-00000 //Mask of the Betrayer key
Key3=00000-00000-00000-00000-00000-00000-00000 //Storm of Zehir key

Replace the keys here with the corresponding keys in your GOG owned games list.

I've yet to install the GOG version as I am waiting for the Mysteries of Westgate DLC to be fixed first, but I hear there is a program that you can enter your keys in to change them for you instead, this would probably in your install folder or under start menu under something like
I'm having this problem also, however this solution doesn't work because we are only provided with one CD Key... If we enter it three times, we'll get an unauthorized CD key error when connecting to a server.

Yes exactly. I checked my account for the cd keys expecting to find 3 keys. There was only one. So enter it in all three slots and then i get the your cd key is unauthorized message. I started a ticket with gog but who knows how long til they reply. I request a new cd key but has anybody here had good experience with this?

GOG is aware of the issue, which is a database issue. Be patient on your ticket: it is the weekend, and there is only a skeleton staff, so don't expect a reply until next week.

Is there any way to purchase 2 copies on the same GOG account, or do I need to get a second GOG account in order to purchase a second copy for LAN play?

Only a single license can be redeemed per account. I.E. you do need a second account.
