<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The CISCO 'NAT loop back' item is 'Filter Internet
NAT Redirection.' I'm not at my usual location so I can't check
how it's set on my e3200. I think un-checking that option (the
default) allows the redirection of your external IP back to your
local LAN. It's one of the firewall settings.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Nicky,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>At handshake time the opensim server sends the
viewer the resolved IP address of the region being connected to. I'm
assuming that would be your dyndns domain name + a port number.
However the server send the resolved address, not the domain name. So
the viewer will be getting the external IP + port number. This can
work if you local network router has NAT loopback enabled. If not the
viewer attempts to use the address and doesn't reach the server. The
host file settings would be effective if at handshake time the server sent
domain names to be resolved but it doesn't.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hope this helps. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV>I am running a diva under win 7 64 bit. Same machine as several linux
VMs. I want to connect each VM to the opensim sever. The VM's network
cards are set to receive a DHCP ip from the router and that works. I can
connect to any external grid (SL & OS) from the VM's. I have a dyndns
domain name assigned to the cable company external IP.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>The hosts file in the VM is set to server's lan ip and the dyndns
domain name. Ping to the domain wraps to the server IP.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>At viewer start I receive the splash from the server.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>The login will not get past establishing the region handshake.</DIV>
