[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Problems starting ejabber/opensrf router

[Edward Corrado]

Hi Everyone,

On IRC we managed to get this going somewhat, but I still can't connect 
with srfsh. I'm pretty sure I have something mixed up between the old 
hostname (TCNJ-85), the new host name (darkstar) and localhost. I can 
connect to the Jabber port by using telnet (telnet localhost 5222). I 
did get some errors to this effect in /openils/var/log/osrfsys.log (see 
http://paste.lisp.org/display/55921).

I think something might be screwy with my /etc/hosts as well..... This 
is what it currently looks like:

    opensrf at darkstar:~$ more /etc/hosts
    127.0.0.1       localhost
    127.0.1.1       darkstar.TCNJ.EDU darkstar darkstar.localdomain


I think that is right based on th directions, but I'm not sure. Since 
darkstar is the outside name, I'm not sure the purpose of it being in 
the 127.0.1.1. Of course, I am not 100% sure I understand the 127.0.1.1 
to begin with.

Edward
