[Spread-users] Trouble Talking Between 2 Servers

Thanks for your help dustin, we actually had a couple of problems,
1) We use FreeBSD, so the port had to be opened in /etc/services
2) The network addresses we were using were incorrect.
For our internal network (10.1.1.x)
the segment address should be 10.255.255.255, instead of 10.1.1.255 which is what we had
On a 192.168.1.x network 192.168.1.255 as a segment address will work
Thanks again
Cheers,
Cam

I keep having problems like this, usually caused by:
* firewalling 4803 or 4804
* different names for boxes in different configuration files
* different IPs for boxes in different configuration files
Diagnostics that I have usd involve:
* watching spread's logs to see what daemons it thinks are in the
group:

[Fri 13 Oct 2006 02:43:50] Configuration at box1 is:
[Fri 13 Oct 2006 02:43:50] Num Segments 1
[Fri 13 Oct 2006 02:43:50] 4 192.168.1.255 4803
[Fri 13 Oct 2006 02:43:50] box2 10.1.1.102
[Fri 13 Oct 2006 02:43:50] box1 10.1.1.101
[Fri 13 Oct 2006 02:43:50] box3 10.1.1.103
[Fri 13 Oct 2006 02:43:50] box4 10.1.1.104
[Fri 13 Oct 2006 02:43:50] ====================
* watching spmonitor to see if the token is circulating between boxes (rounds
should be counting up in sync)
* using spuser to join the same group on each box
That takes any question about the scripts out of the picture (although from my
understanding of Perl, they looked fine).
