RemoteAdmin

How to Setup the Remote Admin

Setup OpenSim

First you should enable the remote admin interface to do so just add the following lines to your OpenSim.ini file:

[RemoteAdmin]
enabled = true
access_password = secret

#!/usr/bin/python  
import xmlrpclib  
  
# XML-RPC URL (http_listener_port)  
gridServerURL = ‘http://127.0.0.1:9000′  
   
# instantiate server object  
gridServer = xmlrpclib.Server(gridServerURL)  
  
# invoke admin_alert: requires password and message  
gridServer.admin_broadcast({’password’: ’secret’,   ‘message’: ‘the answer is 42′})

Example in PHP

This example needs the RemoteAdmin PHP Class file available here.

<?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');

?>
