[Opensim-users] Phoenix Viewer hangs at "Waiting for Region handshake"

Thanks for this. I thought the documentation states that "0.0.0.0" would 
be interpreted as meaning "all local interfaces"?

I tried explicitly putting in the internal IP (the 10.x.x.x) but it 
didn't help anything - I still get a hang on "Waiting for Region 
handshake" from the Phoenix Viewer.

A fixed IP on Amazon would be nice, but unfortunately the charge for 
them :) I'm happy to keep using their dynamic IPs for the moment, even 
though it means editing the OpenSim config files each time I restart the 
EC2 instance.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Kenneth.
