In my dreams, I get to have one week to document this whole
configuration mechanism... In reality, I don't have that time, so let me
briefly explain the main idea.
We have split the resources that OpenSim uses into a bunch of little
services that, in turn, access the persistent storage backend. Because
people have all kinds of scalability requirements for their virtual
worlds, these little services can either run in the same process as the
simulator itself (the smallest possible configuration, aka standalone)
or they can run in other processes on the same machine or even on other
machines. They're all splittable and "aggregable" with configuration
switches.
Some services "talk" to others. For example, the Login service doesn't
even have any storage associated with it, it's simply an aggregation of
other services; the UserAccount service needs to access Auth, Presence,
Grid and Inventory in order to create new accounts; the Gatekeeper and
the UserAgents talk to each other; etc.
So in the configuration sections we need to specify how a given service
accesses the other services. If they are in the same process, we simply
instantiate the service objects directly, so things in
OpenSim.Services.<some service>.dll; if, however, the services a
specific service needs run on a separate process/machine, then we need
to specify a network connector for them, so stuff in
OpenSim.Connectors.dll, and then we need to provide an ServerURI that
each of those connectors will use to find the right process.
I know this is not the ultimate reference guide, but I hope this helps
shed some light for the possibilities...

Sorry, and also the other way around. Gatekeeper and UserAgents talk

Unfortunately, I'm looking at the code and I see that I haven't
completed the init code of the Gatekeeper connector for this to work...
Please file a mantis so that I don't forget to finish it.
What you can do right now is to pull out both the Gatekeeper and the
UserAgents to another process running on port 8004. In this case, you
need to change the LoginService config, since the Login service talks
to the UserAgents service:
[LoginService]
UserAgentService =
"OpenSim.Services.Connectors.dll:UserAgentServiceConnector"
You need to change all the ServiceURLs to use 8004, and make sure you
don't have the old URLs of port 8002 in the useraccounts table.
And then,
[UserAgentService]
...
UserAgentServerURI = "http://mygrid.org:8004/";

Separating the UserAgents service from the Gatekeeper service
requires an additional change in one of the connectors of the
Gatekeeper:
It is:
[GatekeeperService]
...
UserAgentService =
"OpenSim.Services.HypergridService.dll:UserAgentService"
It should use the connector instead:
[GatekeeperService]
...
UserAgentService =
"OpenSim.Services.Connectors.dll:UserAgentServiceConnector"
Which in turn requires you to provide a URI for it, so that the
Gatekeeper can properly talk to the UserAgents service on the other
process:
[UserAgentService]
...
UserAgentServerURI = "http://mygrid.org:8002/";
(Make sure to add the '/ at the end... buglet)
I haven't tried this particular combination, but it ought to work.

Thank you for your reply. I don't necessarily need to run it in it's
own
robust shell. Say i want to run the gatekeeper service on port 8004
within the
same robust instace. What i have tried is changing in Robust.HG.ini:
8002/OpenSim.Server.Handlers.dll:GatekeeperServiceInConnector to
8004/OpenSim.Server.Handlers.dll:GatekeeperServiceInConnector
[LoginService]
GatekeeperURI = "http://mygrid.org:8004";
[GatekeeperService]
ExternalName = "http://mygrid.org::8004";
== Result ==
robust console => request to link to region_foo (nothing more)
client => Could not teleport. Problem at destionation
Maybe i must run it in its own instance for some reason?

I was wondering whether it's possible to seperate the gatekeeper

The reason i want to do this, is that i'm hoping to restrict
hypergrid
access with iptables.
Yes. Robust.HG.ini.example shows how to have different services
listening on different ports (8002 vs. 8003 in the example).
If you want to run only HG-related services in their own Robust
instance, make sure you've also included the UserAgentService
alongside
GatekeeperService.
