Hi all,
I send this message a couple of weeks ago but received no reply.

... if at first you don't succeed, ...
Thanks,

Subject: problem with procServ and server port numbers

Hi all,
I have two nearly identical soft IOCs on two separate linux machines; SL6.4, EPICS v3.14.12.3, procServ 2.6.0
Each updates the PV on the other machine such that I have an infinite loop between the computers.  Each of the
computers are running only 1 IOC for the test, but ultimately, I run several IOCs with different server ports
on a single PC.

I ran 4 tests to compare what happens when between running from the command line and using procServ
with port 5064 vs an arbitrary port 10000.  In all cases $EPICS_CA_AUTO_ADDR_LIST=NO.  For the cases
when I used procServ, I also did a tcpdump.

When running both IOCs from terminals with:
1) $EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5064  and $EPICS_CA_SERVER_PORT=5064  yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy:5064":  2 IOCs work together
2) $EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000 and $EPICS_CA_SERVER_PORT=10000 yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy:10000": 2 IOCs work together
These results were expected.

When running both IOCs from procServ, and using the command:
procServ -i ^D^C --killsig 15 --name testSoftIOC --quiet 7004 /home/epics/epicsDEV/iocTops/testSoftIOC/iocBoot/ioctestSoftIOC/st.cmd

3) $EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5064  and $EPICS_CA_SERVER_PORT=5064  yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy:5064":
The 2 IOCs work together successfully.  Then performing the tcpdump, I get:

[root@miceiocpctest epics]# tcpdump -i eth0 -c 20 -n host yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy and port not 22
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
