It is a change of protocol. I tried to get it up with NML for the first time yesterday but are a little bit unsure the start procedure, there are several programs run at startup. I simplified the linuxcnc start script yesterday to hardcoded format so I could figure which commands are run at startup. Happen to know if I could use halcmd or other to check if server is up and running? On the client do I only need to run axis? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
