[Opensim-dev] New configuration capabilities

[Robert Martin]

my whole take on this is:

1 a tech working with a nontech person sets up a demo server on %localhost%
2 non tech person has fun playing with the sim and decides to "go
bigger" (%localnetwork%) and gets non tech people going
3 group decides this is great fun and then decides to "Share with the world"

so it would be best if a [bold]short[/bold] descriptive name was used
so that each level of unlock requires the minimum of fiddling

so we need
1 the serve[r|rs]
2 what ever controls the number and source of remote clients
3 the nam[e|es] that show up the various places
in the magic section
so that in my case i can flip from %localhost% and J2B demo to
168.1.1.20 and J2B SB Test landing up at J2B.salembaptistnow.org and
Journey to Bethlehem Online all without having to tell Pastor W that
things got broke and we need a couple days to fix thing.
