[AG-TECH] Change URL

[Eric Olson]

Hi Giosu,
There is a way to override the default hostname/ip that the Access Grid
uses, but first you may want to try to setup your system's default
hostname and ip.  The AG Toolkit gets that information from your
system.
It asks your system for the fqdn (fully qualified domain name).  I believe
that's the same as the result from "hostname --fqdn".  It seems like
adding a 192.168.0.1 entry to your /etc/hosts file and setting your
hostname with the "hostname <yourhost>" command should work.  I'm not a
networking expert so that's my best guess -- you can find more information
by reading the documentation on hostname ("man hostname").  It seems like
your hostname/ip is currently set to localhost (127.0.0.1).

If that's doesn't work, or you'd rather just directly tell the AG
software your ip address, set the GLOBUS_HOSTNAME variable to the ip
address you want.
sh:
 export GLOBUS_HOSTNAME=192.168.0.1
or with csh:
 setenv GLOBUS_HOSTNAME 192.168.0.1
