 Hello all,

I'm trying to get my FDM to work with FlightGear.

My FDM runs in Linux and sends packets to FlightGear using UDP. Everything
works fine when FlightGear runs in Windows on another machine in my network.

What I cannot do is get things to work when FlightGear is running under
Linux and on the same machine as the FDM. What happens is that my FDM
correctly sends the packets to the loopback interface and specified port, as
reported by a packet sniffer, but FlightGear does not react.

Possibly relevant information follows:

Linux: SUSE 9.3
FlightGear version: 0.9.3-91
Ports tried: 5500, 12204, 7789
Example FlightGear parameters: fgfs --native=socket,in,30,,7789,udp
--fdm=external
(also tried --native-fdm instead of --native)

Relevant FlightGear console output:
    Parse I/O channel request: native,socket,in,30,,7789,udp
      protocol = native
      medium = socket
      direction = in
      hertz = 30
      hostname =
      port = 7789
      style = udp



Antonio,

I don't see anything immediately wrong, but this arrangement should work.
I've done similar things myself many times where a local program sends data
to a copy of FlightGear running on the same machine.

Regards,

Curt.
