[opensource-dev] Questions about SOCKS5 support in SnowGlobe

2010-06-22 Thread Neil Canham
I hope that this is the right place to ask - I'm very interested in trying
the SOCKS5 support in SnowGlobe to connect to both SL and also my own
OpenSim instances from inside corporate firewalls, and to allow prospective
clients to do the same. I have two questions:

Does SLVoice traffic get 'socksified'?
If the organisation doesn't have a Socks server, can I run a Socks server
such as antinat outside the firewall (eg - on the OpenSim server box itself)
and tell SnowGlobe to route traffic through an acceptable firewall opening
port such as 80 or 443?

Any help gratefully received!
Thanks
Neil

I'm going to attach a work-around to SNOW-548.  Cheers.

Not currently no, the SLVoice is a seperate process and is not subject
to the socks wrappers within the viewer. Although i see no reason why
you could not" socksified" that executable with a socks wrapper
program for the time being. I think this deservesis worth a jira
feature request, as SG 1.4 supports socks and SG2.0 will once i pull
my finger out, SLVoice also supporting it is a valid requirment

Give me the SLVoice code and i will do it.

Thanks Robin, you are a very kind soul. Socksifying SL Voice is much needed
for behind the firewall access.

Thanks - that makes sense.  I can raise the jira if that helps.

[opensource-dev] Explorations in develop.py

2010-06-22 Thread Ricky
Looking through develop.py, I spied the following lines:

281-elif self.arch() == 'x86_64' and self.is_internal_tree():
282-# the viewer does not build in 64bit -- kdu5 issues
283-# we can either use openjpeg, or overhaul our viewer
to handle kdu5 or higher
284:# doug knows about kdu issues
285-return ['server-' + platform_build]

Using svn blame, I found that these lines arrived into
/linden/projects/2010/snowglobe/trunk/indra/develop.py at the time of
the creation of this project at r3145.  I didn't checkout and search
up the parent branches (wish svn had a way to do this easily!)
Because of this, I am unable to tell whether this is still valid or
otherwise.  Any enlightenment? Maybe a JIRA so I can see what the
current status is?  My initial searches have turned up nothing,
however, I may not be using the correct keywords...

My memory is bugging me with the thought that a switchover to OpenJPEG
has already happened... If so, then section of code should likely be
updated.  Of course, it seems from the conditional that is is only
about 64 bit builds of the Linden internal branch.  However, the
reasoning given here may not be valid any more, and could possibly be
replaced with a reference to a JIRA issue, maybe even the Linux 64bit
build meta http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-13793 .

Thanks,
Ricky

[opensource-dev] Tut Error Building Standalone

2010-06-22 Thread Ricky
This looks a lot like a resurgence of
http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SNOW-649 However, the structure of
CMakeLists.txt seems to have changed quite a bit since that time.  Any
ideas?  The error is identical to the example given in the JIRA issue.

Should I re-open the issue or create a new one linked to it?

Thanks,
Ricky
