The Simple CORBA Time Server below that you are going to install can be registered on any machine that has a naming server running and with any unique that you want to give it, the default name for the service is TimeServer. You must specify the host machine name or IP address for the naming service even if it is localhost. You do not need to specify a service name using -serverid:, the default is Timeserver, but we recommend that you do specify one after you run it using the default name (this is to ensure that all components are working as expected using their default value). Moving away from the defaults will help you get a better understanding the problem architecture. You should also note that by default the server is not visible outside of your local network, to expose it you must specify the public address used in the NAT using -proxyid:. |
