Open Grid Public Beta/Open Sim OGP How To
- Download a patch and apply it to the OpenSim source.
- You can download a pre-compiled version of OpenSim with the OGP patch.
N.B. - Despite the name of "external_host_address" and the instructions in the OpenSim docs, you _must_ use the external IP Number of your sim in the external_host_name slot of your default.xml. Either answer the External Host Name question with the IP number during the initial startup of your sim, or edit the Regions/default.xml file appropriately.
N.B. - if you have trouble with authentication make sure 'accounts_authenticate = false' in your OpenSim.ini
N.B. - Firewalls: If your OGP OpenSim is running in standalone mode, then you only need to open the port listed in your region descriptor - bin/Regions/default.xml, <... interernal_ip_port=9000 ...> attribute, 9000 unless you fiddle it. HOWEVER, you must open it for _both_ TPC and UDP in both directions.
