[Opensim-users] Still trying to set up groups - progress and problems

Wayne,
a quick response to your 2 points:
1) the names i used in the documentation are either default values
('opensim' is the database and user name found in the .nin file comments
and has been the convention for those comments as far back as i can
remember) or suggested values to simplify the instructions. i
personally stick with 'opensim' as the username because i have several
other databases and users for other projects and it makes it easy for me
to restrict privileges for a user named 'opensim' to all my OpenSim
databases.
the same goes for the database name. i used 'os_services' as an example
that hopefully most people would find useful and straightforward. feel
free to use whatever names suit your needs/environment. all that
matters is that the values you assign are reflected in the .ini files.
2) i do believe the 'profile' urls in grid-specific .ini files NEED to
be externally accessible (when running OpenSim with outside
connectivity) because other grids will use those to handle aspects of
your identity when you do HG jumps. i don't know for sure all of the
background services that pass through those urls beyond the obvious, but
unless i'm explicitly running a closed standalone sandbox with no grid
or HG capabilities i use fully qualified urls for the sake of consistency.
