My testing seems to show the IP address rather than domain name is
passed to the client for region/UDP.
I have one region using ExternalHostName=SYSTEMIP and the others using
ExternalHostName=something.dyndns-mail.com
I run Opensim 0.7.0.2 on a VISTA system, stand alone mode, client
access both local and external, NAT loopback on.
All that works fine.
SYSTEMIP is an IP address. If that's what you have, that's what will be
sent to the client.
I suggest people people use domain names everywhere for ExternalHostName
and do local DNS mapping if necessary -- this may be needed in home
networks.
One other item I found that suggests IP addresses are being passes
rather than domain names is the Entity Transfer Module entries in the
server log
2011-04-04 22:24:53,759 INFO -
OpenSim.Region.CoreModules.Framework.EntityTransfer.EntityTransferModule
[ENTITY TRANSFER MODULE]: Starting to inform client about neighbour
999, 999(174.124.181.36:9009)
This has nothing to do with client communications -- it's the backend
server-to-server communications for handing the agent over to the other sim.
