Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Hi.

P.D: I'm not a subscriber but this e-mail is a reply to this tech-talk http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/tech-talk/2011/msg01405.php If you can publish it anyway I'll be very grateful

I have the same problem. I'll describe my system:

• IOC is in a virtual machine running Linux (192.168.1.45)
  
• CSS is in the host machine, running Windows 7 (192.168.1.33)
  
• Both systems, as you can see, share the same subnet, which is 192.168.1.0/24
  

If I configure CSS with addr_list to 192.168.1.45 all works perfectly, but IOC's IP is dynamic so I want to force CSS to discover PVs. When I turn on auto_addr_list in CSS and leave addr_list empty, it doesn't connect. If I put 192.168.1.0 in addr_list field doesn't connect neither.
