possible bug

Elliot Finley
Hello,

     I just started playing with Magma, so it may be just me not knowing how to use it.  I have a server running in image A on my machine.  In image B on the same machine I have the following in a workspace:

mySession :=
(MagmaRemoteLocation
host: '10.215.90.59'
port: 51001) newSession.
mySession connectAs: 'elliot'.

myRoot := mySession root.

If I use '127.0.0.1' or 'localhost' as the host, then I get a timeout error when calling mySession>>connectAs:

It says 'ConnectionTimedOut: Cannot connect to 10.215.90.74:51001' (10.215.90.74 is an address that I've had at one time).  If I specifically use '10.215.90.59' as the host, then connectAs: works as normal, but then the following statement 'myRoot := mySession root.' fails with the 'ConnectionTimedOut: Cannot connect to 10.215.90.74:51001' error.

Has anyone seen this before?  What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Elliot

Elliot, you have specified a class-B address??  Do you really have the
Magma server running on the Net?

Why do you want to use addresses instead of hostnames?  What does

  NetNameResolver localHostName

and

  NetNameResolver localHostAddress

answer for you?

NetNameResolver localHostName. '0.0.0.0'

NetNameResolver localHostAddress. #[0 0 0 0]

That corresponds to the following ifconfig output from my macbook pro:

the-macbook:~ efinley$ ifconfig

as you can see, my address is 10.215.90.59, but yet the error is 'ConnectionTimedOut: Cannot connect to 10.215.90.74:51001'.

When I remove the wired connection on the 10.215.90.0/24 network and turn on the wireless connection on the 67.22.168.0/24 network, then the client connects to the server just fine, and I get the following output:

NetNameResolver localHostName. 'prcowifi-67-22-168-209.etv.net'

NetNameResolver localHostAddress.  #[67 22 168 209]

I'm not really sure what you mean by class-B address.  It's on an RFC1918 (i.e. private) address when I'm on the 10.215.90.0/24 network (A class-C subnet).  And yes, just for testing, when I'm on the 67.22.168.0/24 subnet, it's a publicly routable address.

It would be nice to be able to plug in some sort of encryption/authentication between the server and client.  Until that happens though, we can always just use a SSH tunnel.

I appreciate you taking the time to look into this.  It appears to be a problem with the answer from NetNameResolver when I'm on the private network.  I'm not sure where to go from here though.
