[Swift-devel] Question regarding ip.address

[Ioan Raicu]

Zhao,
You just need a way to pass an IP address to the deef provider... so 
might as well do:

export GLOBUS_HOSTNAME=182.17.3.16

and then read the environment variable "GLOBUS_HOSTNAME" in the deef 
provider and get the IP address that way.  This is assuming that the 
-ip.address option in Swift doesn't work as you expected.
