Despite that I only used x.y.z.w as an example, it does not mean you have to use an IP address. It is a URI and no IP address is needed. I could have put: http://www.somehost.com/Interface/Connect Please, review what is meant by resource URI (in REST context): http://www.ics.uci.edu/~fielding/pubs/dissertation/evaluation.htm#sec_6_2 And, what is meant by just a URI: http://labs.apache.org/webarch/uri/rfc/rfc3986.html You'll notice the semantics of root nodes and identifiers are what was significant, not the IP or host name. _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/SLDev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
