Pekr 7-Mar-2012 [4102] | you can login as a Master, but a world password? What is it for? Isn't it good for to only auto-setup a Master account, which will be given a world password? |
Henrik 7-Mar-2012 [4103] | so you specify it once, when creating a new world and there is no way to change it, which is a problem. |
Maxim 7-Mar-2012 [4104] | probably until it expires automatically, which is 5 days IIRC for free worlds. |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4105] | I am back in, too. |
Pekr 7-Mar-2012 [4106] | Yes, I know the form requests it ... do you think it is stored, and then used to register with altme.com? |
Henrik 7-Mar-2012 [4107x3] | it's odd because I need to use the password, when starting it from the AltME GUI, but I don't need it, when starting from CLI. |
Gregg, maybe we can perform the transfer anyway. | |
The CLI way should also work in Windows, right? | |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4110] | Yes, though there are glitches on alt ports, so we will have to see. I have two worlds on the VM now (5400 and 5401), so we would know right away if it works on 5402. |
Henrik 7-Mar-2012 [4111x2] | ok, I'm going to close the Rebol4 world again, and you try to start it in a second. |
done | |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4113] | Started, but not able to connect here. |
Henrik 7-Mar-2012 [4114x2] | What does your user list show? |
it should show 98 users, 0 active. | |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4116] | It does. |
Henrik 7-Mar-2012 [4117] | ok, good, then there is a firewall or routing problem. |
Pekr 7-Mar-2012 [4118] | Gregg - not sure it will work on 5402, unless it registers itself on altme.com that way? |
Maxim 7-Mar-2012 [4119] | pekr, when you start the server, you effectively transmit that info to the altme world name server. |
Pekr 7-Mar-2012 [4120] | in worst case, we would have to wait 5-10 days for the timeout. But maybe, when starting a server, it will re-register the requested port, dunno ... |
Maxim 7-Mar-2012 [4121] | that is primarily why the world name server exists AFAIK. |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4122] | It sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. Alt ports that is. |
Pekr 7-Mar-2012 [4123] | world name exists from the marketing purposes ;-) |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4124] | I agree with Max, but there are other issues too. Need to check the info file. |
Pekr 7-Mar-2012 [4125] | simply check here,once you transfer and start it - http://www.altme.com/cgi-bin/lookup.cgi |
Maxim 7-Mar-2012 [4126] | FYI, it takes 10 days for world name passwords to reset when you last use it (last paragraph here: http://www.altme.com/notes/lost-pass.html) |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4127x2] | It says none of my worlds are available. |
Including this one. | |
Maxim 7-Mar-2012 [4129] | yeah, just got the same reaction. |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4130x2] | Not a firewall issue. |
And netstat says 5402 is listening. | |
Andreas 7-Mar-2012 [4132x2] | The world name server still believes that the world ought to be served from Henrik's machine. |
http://www.altme.com/cgi-bin/lookup.cgi?lookup=rebol4 | |
Henrik 7-Mar-2012 [4134x2] | hmm... that seems a bit silly. if you change your network provider, you can't serve anything. |
I'm getting invalid user/pass now. | |
Maxim 7-Mar-2012 [4136] | strange the lookup page is screwed up. |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4137] | Are you running the server again? |
Henrik 7-Mar-2012 [4138x2] | I'm not... |
This is odd. Now the world name is suddenly case sensitive again. | |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4140] | You should be able to just move and restart a server. I still can't connect at all, even on the server itself. |
Henrik 7-Mar-2012 [4141] | If I try "Rebol4", I get invalid password. If I try "rebol4", I get no connection. |
Andreas 7-Mar-2012 [4142] | Gregg, that's because the WNS did not yet refresh (for whatever reason). |
Henrik 7-Mar-2012 [4143] | Maybe there is a step missing and it simply can't show that the server is not running. |
Andreas 7-Mar-2012 [4144] | I think the only step missing is that the newly started server needs to refresh WNS. |
Henrik 7-Mar-2012 [4145x4] | aha... I ctrl-C'ed it, when I quit. maybe that's it? |
going to start it and then quit it properly this time | |
now it responds correctly. you can try again, Gregg. | |
(lookup responds correctly) | |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4149] | I'm still trying. Don't know how to force a refresh to the WNS though. |
Andreas 7-Mar-2012 [4150] | I think you may have to start it once via the GUI and enter the password. |
Gregg 7-Mar-2012 [4151] | I can't start the world manually, because of the private pass issue, and the shortcut start doesn't seem to do it. |
