It supports -three methods of socket communication: inet, localhost, and unix. In -general, the same method should be employed for all \s-1XPA\s0 processes in a -session and the global environment variable \s-1XPA_METHOD\s0 should be used -to set up the desired method. By default, the preferred method is -\&\*(L"inet\*(R", which is appropriate for most users. You can set up a -different method by typing something like: -.PP -.Vb 3 -\& setenv XPA_METHOD local # unix csh -\& XPA_METHOD=local; export XPA_METHOD # unix sh, bash, windows/cygwin -\& set XPA_METHOD=localhost # dos/windows -.Ve -.PP -The options for \s-1XPA_METHOD\s0 are: \fBinet\fR, \fBunix\fR (or -\&\fBlocal\fR), and \fBlocalhost\fR. On Unix machines, this -environment setup command can be placed in your shell init file -(.cshrc, .profile, .bashrc, etc.) On Windows platforms, it can be -placed in your \s-1AUTOEXEC\s0.BAT file (I think!). -.PP -By default, \fBinet\fR sockets are used by \s-1XPA\s0. These are the standard -Internet sockets that are used by programs such as Netscape, -ftp. etc. Inet sockets utilize the \s-1IP\s0 address of the given machine and -a (usually random) port number to communicate between processes on the -same machine or between different machines on the Internet. (Note that -\&\s-1XPA\s0 has an Access Control mechanism to -prevent unauthorized access of \s-1XPA\s0 access points by other computers on -the Net). For users connected to the Internet, this usually is the -appropriate communication method. For more information about setting -up \s-1XPA\s0 communication between machines, see -Communication Between Machines. -.PP -In you are using \s-1XPA\s0 on a machine without an Internet connection, then -inet sockets are not appropriate. In fact, an \s-1XPA\s0 process often will -hang for many seconds while waiting for a response from the Domain -Name Service (\s-1DNS\s0) when using inet sockets. Instead of inet sockets, -users on Unix platforms can also use \fBunix\fR sockets (also known -as local sockets). These sockets are based on the local file system -and do not make use of the \s-1DNS\s0. They generally are considered to be -faster than inet sockets, but they are not implemented under -Windows. Use local sockets as a first resort if you are on a Unix -machine that is not connected to the Internet. -.PP -Users not connected to the Internet also can use \fBlocalhost\fR -sockets. These are also inet-type sockets but the \s-1IP\s0 address used for -the local machine is the \fBlocalhost\fR address, 0x7F000001, instead -of the real \s-1IP\s0 of the machine. Depending on how sockets are set up for -a given platform, communication with the \s-1DNS\s0 usually is not required in -this case (though of course, \s-1XPA\s0 cannot interact with other machines). -The localhost method will generally work on both Unix and Windows -platforms, but whether the \s-1DNS\s0 is required or not is subject to -individual configurations. -.PP -A final warning/reminder: if your XPA-enabled server hangs at startup -time and your \s-1XPA_METHOD\s0 is \fBinet\fR, the problem probably is -related to an incorrect Internet configuration. This can be confirmed -by using the \fBunix\fR method or (usually) the \fBlocalhost\fR -method. You can use these alternate methods if other hosts do not need -access to the \s-1XPA\s0 server. -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.IX Header "SEE ALSO" -See xpa(n) for a list of \s-1XPA\s0 help pages |
