[Opensim-users] Awaiting region handshake

[Guardian]

ok, so I've put the server in my router's DMZ, and I can HTTP to all the
ports I need (8002 and 9000) and get the hippo page.

I've put the modem's external IP address in regions under external ip, and
the internal ip in the grid-common.ini

now I get thos error in the robust console when trying to connect:

13:08:08 - [WEB UTIL]: <0> osd request for
http://222.155.61.228:9000/agent/142d8e3f-c5ce-4e88-8a5f-8866da75223f/,
method POST FAILED: Error: ConnectFailure (Connection refused)
