Has anyone had any success using NSConnection to get distant objects over the network? I have been able to get it to work between program on the same system with the host name being nil but as soon as I try to use any actual host name it doesn't work.
That was what I thought but it didn't work. I have tried (while testing to connect to myself as if I were not on this machine) "localhost", my domain name and my IP. No luck, though.
I found out what one of the problems was but I still have another. I was having a problem before because I was implicitly using NSPort objects for the connection where remote connections demand the use of NSSocketPort objects. Now that I have fixed that, I am getting a new problem.
Whenever I try to connect to the server of a DO I get this message when I try to send the "rootProxy" message to the DO:
[NSPortCoder sendBeforeTime:sendReplyPort:] timed out
I can't figure out how to avoid this problem and I can't find that "sendBeforeTime:sendReplyPort:" method in the NSSocketPort class or any of the classes that it inherits from.
