How does one solve the problem of Opensim answering to only one toplevel
domain? Opensim supports only one Public DNS name, yet a server can be
both TLD.com and a www.TLD.com. Or more.

For example, my problem seems to be that my system responds to both
www.Outworldz.com:9000 and Outworldz.com:9000.   There are two A records
at Dyn DNS, both pointing to the same server.    In the web site, the
web server can be told to redirect traffic to Outworldz.com with a 301
to www.Outworldz.com. But this is not possible with Opensim.

So what happens in Opensim on one of them is a failure to verify.

06:14:46 - [GATEKEEPER SERVICE]: Verifying http://outworldz.com:9000
against http://www.outworldz.com:9000
06:14:46 - [GATEKEEPER SERVICE]: Unable to verify identity of agent XX
YY. Refusing service.


Would it be useful to at least try the www. and non www. variants when the one given fails, before giving up?

I assume trailing "/" is already stripped of before the string comparison? If not, that's definitely needed.

And it seems that a HG lookup that subsequently fails to complete the teleport is still cached.... that was the issue I had in testing with Fred in the last few days,. I had to do a 'show hyperlinks' and 'unlink-region <region-domain:port/>' to allow subsequent teleports to work. This means its only open to someone with a region server and console access. A normal user could not have fixed this. If possible that failed teleport should lead to the cache entry not being made.. or deleted from the cache if it was already in place?
