| | something called the `gemnetid` before you login. For example, the
| | following tells topaz to connect to a netldi server on port 30733 :
| 

| | set gemnetid !#netldi:30733!gemnetobject
| 

| ohhh wow... I would have never guesses that ;)

| | For remote servers, you need to supply a remote host name. Here's
| | one
| | I use for connecting from my mac to my workstation in the office:
| 

| | set gemnetid !tcp at foos#netldi:41779#task!gemnetobject
| 

| | The good news is that I didn't have to figure out the magic
| | sequence
| | for the above, I generated the above from the
| | OGStandardSessionDescription that I used with GemTools and you can
| | do the same by printing the result of sending the #gemNRS message
| | to
| | your session descirption instance:
| 

| | (OGStandardSessionDescription new
| 

| | name: 'commandLineGemstoneRemote';
| 
| | stoneHost: 'localhost';
| 
| | stoneName: 'seaside';
| 
| | gemHost: 'localhost';
| 
| | netLDI: '50330';
| 
| | userId: 'DataCurator';
| 
| | password: 'swordfish';
| 
| | backupDirectory: '/opt/gemstone/product/seaside/data/backups/';
| 
| | yourself) gemNRS
| 

| | produces:
| 

| | '!tcp at localhost#netldi:50330#task!gemnetobject'
| 

| | which you can use to `set gemnetid` for topaz:
| 

| | set gemnetid !tcp at localhost#netldi:50330#task!gemnetobject
| 

| Cool, good to know about # gemNRS. In fact, it looked weird to me not
| to have a way to get a topaz ini file out from the
| OGStandardSessionDescription...

| | BTW the #stoneNRS message will produce a string suitable to `set
| | gemstone` for topaz:
| 

| | set gemstone !tcp at localhost#server!seaside
| 

| Thanks, I could connect now :)
| Quite slow but it works!
Yeah, GemTools is almost unusable over the WAN ... tODE will do much better and I am continuing to make progress on tODE ... now that I've hit my internal deadline, I will have a bit more time to devote to tODE ...
