Nicky,
At handshake time the opensim server sends the viewer the resolved IP address
of the region being connected to. I'm assuming that would be your dyndns
domain name + a port number. However the server send the resolved address, not
the domain name. So the viewer will be getting the external IP + port number.
This can work if you local network router has NAT loopback enabled. If not the
viewer attempts to use the address and doesn't reach the server. The host file
settings would be effective if at handshake time the server sent domain names
to be resolved but it doesn't.
Hope this helps.

Subject: [Opensim-users] Region handshake does not complete
I am running a diva under win 7 64 bit. Same machine as several linux VMs. I
want to connect each VM to the opensim sever. The VM's network cards are set to
receive a DHCP ip from the router and that works. I can connect to any external
grid (SL & OS) from the VM's. I have a dyndns domain name assigned to the cable
company external IP.
The hosts file in the VM is set to server's lan ip and the dyndns domain
name. Ping to the domain wraps to the server IP.
At viewer start I receive the splash from the server.
The login will not get past establishing the region handshake.
Hints please.
Nicky
