What map are you playing, also I should recommend that you get the patch cuz the the one you're thinking of I think needs to be on both pcs, but thats just my guess

Does the other person have to patch? Have you tried a different map?

It could also be possible the Official=true flag has been set in the map. Therefore it cannot be transfered online.
Open the map in notepad and CTRL+F (find) for it and change it in Official=false, then save it.
The second option is to send him the map and let him place it in his RA2 dir, then it should be possible to play it too
hope this helps you out a bit on your problem if you encounter it again
