Hopefully you can just have the firewall updated to allow communication through the ports that STAF uses (6500, 6550 by default).
Note that more recent versions of STAF would have given you a better error
in this scenario, something like:
$ STAF <remote_ip> SEM REQUEST MUTEX test
Error submitting request, RC: 16
Additional info
---------------
An error occurred when the SEM service on machine 'remote_ip' attempted to
register for garbage collection notification on endpoint 'ssl://
<your-local-machine>@6550'. Reason: STAFConnectionProviderConnect: Error
resolving host name: Unknown host name: <your-local-machine>,
gethostbyname_r(): 22,
Endpoint: ssl://<your-local-machine>@6550

Hi David,
No, I am not running the latest STAF. I tried 3.3.1 and 3.3.5. Both give me
the same results.
the root cause of this problem is the remote machine cannot do staf ping to
my local.
I finally figured out that this a limitation because the machine is behind
other firewall.
Thanks,
Jeff

Hi,
Are you running the latest versions of STAF (V3.4.1) on both machines?
STAF local MISC VERSION
STAF remote_ip MISC VERSION
Can the remote machine communicate to your local machine via STAF? On the
remote machine, does a "STAF <your-local-machine> PING PING" work? You need
to make sure that works in order for the garbage collection to work
correctly.
Thanks,
David

Subject: [staf-users] mutex garbage collect
Hi,
I tried the sem service according to the user guide.
C:\>STAF local SEM REQUEST MUTEX Mutex1
this works fine and the mutex is garbage collected. However, if I change
the local to an IP address of the other machine.
C:\>STAF remote_ip SEM REQUEST MUTEX Mutex1
The mutex is created but is not garbage collected.
Does anyone know how to make garbage collection working?
Thanks,
Jeff Wang
