just a little update:

have now tried adding the external IP address as the InternalAddress in the region.ini as suggested by Ben and have added the entry in the host file, still getting up to the "Waiting for region handshake..." then the usual "we're having trouble connecting, there may be a problem with your internet" error in the emerald client but i have also tried metabolt (text client) and i get "avatar did not rezz as expected".

now the opensim server is running from my friends ADSL line with a 512mb upload speed in theory i should still be able to connect and the avatar should rezz (maybe slowly) or is the upload too small to support a connection?

Thanks
James

Hi Folks

My friend and I are working on setting up Opensim in grid mode (robust), so everything seems to be working okay when accessed the grid from the lan using -loginuri http://XXXXXX.dyndns.org:8002 for the login url but when I try to access the grid from an external location it hanging :

[14:11]  Logging in. Viewer may appear frozen.  Please wait.
[14:11]  Logging in...
[14:11]  Processing Response...
[14:11]  Initializing World...
[14:11]  Initializing multimedia...
[14:11]  Decoding images...
[14:11]  Waiting for region handshake...
[14:11]  MOTD: United we stand, divided we fall.

with a message that there was a problem while trying to connect.

Ports 9000-9010 tcp and udp are open on both router and xp firewall, so my next line of thought was the region.ini there is no mention (that i can find) that says you can't still using the 9000 range in the region.ini when in grid mode, here is an example of the region.ini, do you have to specify an InternalAddress if your going to access the grid from an external network

[Europe 1]
RegionUUID = "397fd0f8-4279-48d6-8ce2-573d915630dd"
Location = "4168,4665"
InternalAddress = "0.0.0.0"
InternalPort = 9000
AllowAlternatePorts = False
ExternalHostName = "XXXXXX.dyndns.org"


Thanks in advance for the help.

James
