SVN 8525, you no longer need to listen on port 8895 (or whatever you<br>
have set up your server to listen on because this is configurable) when<br>
connecting a region server to a grid (like hooking up a region to OS<br>
Grid), hence<br>
<br>
remoting_listener_port =3D 8895<br>
<br>
can be removed from the ini, and you can hence close that port on your<br>
router because it isn't used any more.<br>
<br>
Remoting is just one method of communicating with other stuff over the<br>
internet, and has until now required OpenSim to use an extra port for<br>
interregion communication. Now, instead of using Remoting, Diva's<br>
changes mean that HTTP is used instead, and this means the main HTTP<br>
port set in your ini:<br>
<br>
http_listener_port =3D 9000<br>
<br>
(or, again, whatever port number you are configured to listen on) is now<br=
>
also used for interregion communications (joining a grid successfully).<br>
<br>
XML RPC is a protocol that is used by the remote administration tools<br>
that many people use. It operates over the main http_listener_port<br>
setting, hence the default of 9000 is also used for this sort of<br>
communication. Those tools will be unaffected by this change.<br>
<br>
What this also means, which Diva stated, is that you can't mix and match<br=
>
between older OpenSim instances and this newer OpenSim code. You can't<br>
have regions expecting communication on port 8895 and not hearing<br>
anything back - you need to be on a similar version of OpenSim (>=3D 852=
5)<br>
<br>
Diva or others, please correct me if I have misunderstood or<br>
mistranslated any of this :)<br>

<p class=3DMsoNormal style=3D'margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Just a heads-up to let =
everyone
know that r8525 departs from .NET<br>
Remoting for good.<br>
Post-r8525 sims no longer listen on remoting ports, they use http<br>
exclusively. This means that those of you who haven't updated your sims<br>
in the past month or so won't be able to go to places that are<br>
up-to-date.<br>
<br>
The UCI Hypergrid gateways are up-to-date.<br>
