[Opensim-users] robust with distant services

[Justin Clark-Casey]

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding you, Diva, but doesn't the Hypergrid grid service (using HypergridLinker) In 
OpenSim.ini.example load its own AssetService copy to service the home grid's map tiles?  The AssetService then makes 
its database connections.  The issue here is that ssm2017 wants to use SRAS as the asset service so this isn't possible.

However, it struck me that OSGrid must already be doing this in their Robust configuration as they use SRAS and allow 
Hypergrid.  Perhaps Nebadon could comment or you might ask on the osgrid technical forums?
