RemoteAdmin is an interface for simulators that allows various operations to be executed from outside the simulator.  '''Operations that relate to the simulator itself (e.g teleport user) are always available.  Those that relate to grid services (user creation and updating) are only available in standalone mode.  In grid mode, one has to use ROBUST level [[UserManipulation]] capabilities instead.'''

As of r/16843 you can limit access to remote admin to specific IP addresses by using the optional access_ip_addresses. You can list all IP's allowed to access remote admin by seperating each IP by a comma. If access_ip_addresses isn't set, then all IP addresses can access RemoteAdmin.

=== Example in C# .NET ===

See OpenSim.ini.example in the OpenSimulator distribution for more details.
  
This example needs the Nwc.XmlRpc library, located in your OpenSim bin folder.

=== Further options ===

You can also specify a different port for the XMLRPCAdmin command listener from the default simulator HTTP port
public void CreateUser(Uri url, string adminPassword, string firstName, string lastName, string password, string email, int regionX, int regionY)
+
{
+
    var address = Dns.GetHostEntry(url.DnsSafeHost).AddressList[0];

    var ht = new Hashtable();

    ht["password"] = adminPassword;

    ht["user_firstname"] = firstName;

    ht["user_lastname"] = lastName;

    ht["user_password"] = password;

    ht["user_email"] = email;
+
    ht["start_region_x"] = regionX;
+
    ht["start_region_y"] = regionY;
+
    var parameters = new List<Hashtable> { ht };

    var rpc = new XmlRpcRequest("admin_create_user", parameters);

    rpc.Invoke(url.ToString());

=== RemoteAdmin executable for Windows ===
+
 
+
The RemoteAdmin executable for Windows is a command line tool based on the RemoteAdmin PHP Class.
+
 
+
Downloads and documentation on the [http://lab.newworldgrid.com/index.php/RemoteAdmin_Executable RemoteAdmin Executable webpage]
+
 
+
=== Example in PHP ===
+
 
+
This example needs the RemoteAdmin PHP Class file available [http://code.google.com/p/opensimtools/wiki/RemoteAdminPHPClass here].
+
<source lang=php>
+
<?php
+
 
+
// Author  : Olish Newman
+
// Source  : http://code.google.com/p/opensimtools/wiki/RemoteAdminPHPClass
+
// Licence : BSD License
+
 
+
// Including the RemoteAdmin PHP class. It can be downloaded from the link above.
+
include('RemoteAdmin.php');
+
 
+
// Instantiate the class with parameters identical to the Python example above
+
$myRemoteAdmin = new RemoteAdmin('127.0.0.1', 9000, 'secret');
+
 
+
// Invoke admin_broadcast
+
$parameters = array('message' => 'the answer is 42');
+
$myRemoteAdmin->SendCommand('admin_broadcast', $parameters);
+
 
+
// Invoke admin_shutdown (example for use without parameters)
+
$myRemoteAdmin->SendCommand('admin_shutdown');
+
 
+
// Invoke admin_create_user (multiple parameters)
+
$parameters = array('user_firstname' => 'Ruth', 'user_lastname' => 'OpenSim', 'user_password' => 'MyPassword', 'start_region_x' => '1000', 'start_region_y' => '1000');
+
$myRemoteAdmin->SendCommand('admin_create_user', $parameters);
+
?>
+
</source>
+
 
+
Note: This script does not appear to work for create user because it tries to pass the start region x and y as a string when the RemoteAdmin needs a string.  The class needs to be edited to pass it as a number or edit the remoteadmin source to convert the string to a unsigned int.
+
 
+
Another example in PHP5, using CURL.
+
<source lang="php">
+
//This is the slightly modified RPC-class of the BSD-licensed WiXTD webportal
+
<?php
+
class RemotePC {
+
 
+
function __construct() {
+
        $this->serveruri = "http://myhost";
+
        $this->serverport ="9000";
+
        $this->password ="foobar";
+
}
+
+
function call($command,$parameters) {
+
        $parameters['password'] = $this->password;
+
$request = xmlrpc_encode_request($command, $parameters);
+
$ch = curl_init();
+
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL, $this->serveruri);
+
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_PORT, $this->serverport]);
+
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
+
curl_setopt ( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
+
curl_setopt ( $ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $request);
+
curl_setopt ( $ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 5);
+
$result = curl_exec($ch);
+
curl_close($ch);
+
return xmlrpc_decode($result);
+
}
+
}
+
?>
+
</source>
+
 
+
 
+
=== Example in Perl ===
+
 
+
Because the OpenSim internal web server just accepts HTTP/1.0 requests, it's worth to give a perl example. It's not a daily thing to do HTTP/1.0 within the LWP environment. You can get the '''[[Users:Thomax:perl-xmlrpc | Perl example here]]'''.

[edit] Introduction

RemoteAdmin is an interface for simulators that allows various operations to be executed from outside the simulator. Operations that relate to the simulator itself (e.g teleport user) are always available. Those that relate to grid services (user creation and updating) are only available in standalone mode. In grid mode, one has to use ROBUST level UserManipulation capabilities instead.

[edit] How to Setup the Remote Admin interface

First you should enable the remote admin interface to do so just add the following lines to your OpenSim.ini file Port should be set to a nonzero value to have the remote admin on a different port

As of r/16843 you can limit access to remote admin to specific IP addresses by using the optional access_ip_addresses. You can list all IP's allowed to access remote admin by seperating each IP by a comma. If access_ip_addresses isn't set, then all IP addresses can access RemoteAdmin.

[RemoteAdmin]
enabled = true
access_password = secret
enabled_methods = all

See OpenSim.ini.example in the OpenSimulator distribution for more details.

[edit] Further options

You can also specify a different port for the XMLRPCAdmin command listener from the default simulator HTTP port

[RemoteAdmin]
port = <port-number>

[edit] RemoteAdmin Commands

Caution ! All commands using parameters for the uuid of a region use "region_id" as parameter. All other parameters eg. region_uuid or regionID will be removed after June 2012
