[ace-users] Re: Naming service fails to start with ip address 192.168.2.x

Hi Ed,

You are using an ANCIENT version of ACE+TAO. Therefore, the first
thing I recommend that you do is upgrade to TAO 1.4.1, which you can
download from

http://deuce.doc.wustl.edu/Download.html

Please try this out and see if the problem goes away.

Thanks,

Doug

If I change the ip address from 192.168.2.x to 192.168.1.x, the naming
service starts fine.
I have used the same version of the naming service and TAO on Windows
2000 with different hardware and 2 network cards with no problems.
Anybody has any suggestions of what could cause this?

Hi Doug,
I downloaded TAO 1.4.1 and built the naming service. I get the same
error as before but with more info that I do not understand. Please
read the following which will show both network cards: 192.168.1.2
works and 192.168.2.1 does not!!!
