[dsdp-tm-dev] rseserver daemon, port ranges, and firewalls

["Ploett, Norbert" <norbert.ploett@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
 
so I am back trying to connect to the dstore server via daemon launcher.
I try to connect to a machine which has a firewall so there is a problem
with the fact, that the launcher appears to assign an unpredictable port
to the started service. The help in the daemon.pl script claims that the
script may be started with a port range as command line argument, but
this does not work:
 
# perl daemon.pl 14500-14510
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at daemon.pl
line 40.

line 42.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input
string: "14500-14510"

:409)

org.eclipse.dstore.core.server.ServerLauncher.main(ServerLauncher.java:5
50) 
 
This is in line with the source code, which does not contain any hints
that port ranges are processed. Can anybody help me with info on how to
get the launcher use a specified port range?

(Or any other workaround?)

Thanks,


Norbert
