[Opensim-users] Win-7 Region Server to Ubuntu 14.04 Robust

Offhand I'd think moving the regions to Windows 7 should probably have been
tested while Robust was still on a Windows box. Windows 7 has a firewall
which may be more restrictive than the same one on XP and could be
preventing some incoming communications to the regions.

Aside from my speculation above, I'd suggest posting your configuration
files (after removing any passwords). That way a lot of guessing could be
bypassed and you might get your answer faster. I'd also suggest you might
try the #opensim IRC channel on irc.freenode.net where perhaps someone
could help you in real time.
