Submitted By: Suzy Deffeyes Adddate: 2008-08-04 14:52:26 So here is what happens on the client: rez_avatar/place returns the ip of the region you are connecting to. It then uses that ip to build its SimHost object. If a hostname is returned instead, the client code chokes on it, and defaults to 255.255.255.255 as the dotted ip. So one possible fix would be to have agent domain create the dotted ip address if a sim returns a hostname. Another fix would be to require all sims to return the dotted ip.
Submitted By: Tess Linden Adddate: 2008-08-05 14:40:32 Maybe the protocol should say "host" instead of "ip" and the host could be an IP string as well as the host name. If so, we can change the protocol.
Submitted By: Bill Humphries Adddate: 2008-08-21 16:28:20 Changes to Protocol: sim_ip is now replaced with sim_host field for Place Avatar, Request Rez Avatar, and Rez Avatar. Changes to Viewer: New viewer only checks for sim_host field. If you run the new viewer against an old region, logins and teleports will fail. Use the old viewer in the meantime. Changes to Simulator: Second Life sims return both sim_host and sim_ip. Changes needed on Opensim: should return sim_host and set ip or host to this field
