Okay so seeing there seems to have been some questions I've noticed regarding 0.0.0.0 I thought I would have a little fun during my lunch break and research it as some have had mixed results with it in their region config files. This is what I have found regarding 0.0.0.0:
The IP address 0.0.0.0 can have very different meanings, depending on where it's used. * It's not a valid address to be given to an actual network interface, along with any other address in the 0.0.0.0/8 subnet (i.e. any address starting with 0.). * It can't be used as the source address on any IP packet, unless this happens when a computer still doesn't know its own IP address and it's trying to acquire one (classic example: DHCP). * If used in a routing table, it identifies the default gateway; a route to 0.0.0.0 is the default one, i.e. the one used when there is not any more specific route available to a destination address. * Lastly, when seen in the output of the netstat command (which is what you asked for), it means that a given socket is listening on all the available IP address the computer has; when a computer has more than one IP address, a socket can be bound only to a specific address and port pair, or to a port and all addresses; if you see an IP address there, it means that socket is listening only on that port and that specific address; if you see 0.0.0.0, it means it's listening on that port on all addresses of the machine, including the loopback one (127.0.0.1). My guess is this also holds true on linux based systems. In most cases today on Windows at least, most computers will operate on 127.0.0.1 which is the localhost numeric IP address which also happens to be the loopback ip of your machine. Thus if your computer is on a LAN local area network your better off having your computer's IP on your network as your InternalIP and the external IP should be the IP provided by the ISP (This is how I solved the region handshake problem on Linksys 54G.) Hope that helps a little.

If it's left as 0.0.0.0, then the .net SDK will choose the 'main' one - but I've no idea how it works this out (the .NET SDK docs are not clear on this matter, AFAIR).

Interesting. From looking at the code, what I think is happening here is that when the AvatarFactoryModule attempts to permanently store the normally temporary baked textures, the HGAssetBroker AssetService implementation identifies those as HG assets and thinks they need to be exported to the visitor's OpenSimulator installation, rather than persisted on this installation. It might be possible to work around this by setting the asset ID to a non-HG ID, but this would rely on the notecard also saving the non-HG version.

They are there because the same data format is reused for other purposes.

There is a data storage line inside of the RobustHG.ini that I did not think was normally there. Once I changed the username and password everything worked fine.
