Sorry for the late response, I had some email issues last night and I was unable to respond.

Yes, one PC is running Windows x64 and one is running Scientific Linux x64, I have yet to decide which will be the host and which will be the client, I was thinking Linux should be the host and Windows the client but both of the hame the example IOC and example CA client installed.

I was thinking that connecting 2 PCs will be easier, just run the IOC as usual in a command line window ( bash or cmd ) and then make it so MEDM can read the data from the IOC that is running on the other PC through channel acces, and in my mind I just had to modify a variable for CA just to tell EPICS "send data here".

Hi,

You should not set any of the EPICS_CA_*ADDR* environment variables for that configuration.  The client and server are on the same subnet, so the default settings are fine.

> I am currently trying to run the IOC on a PC and get the data on another PC,

This is not clear. Is one PC running Windows and the other running Linux?  Which one is producing the data and which one would like to access the data?  Are both of the PCs running an IOC or is one PC running an IOC and the other running some other software that produces the data?  How does the computer that produces the data export that data?  As a socket server, etc.?

Give us some more details and we can provide advice.

Mark

Subject: Making two computers communicate.

Hello

I am currently trying to run the IOC on a PC and get the data on another PC, both linked to the same switch. How should I run them? Windows should be the host and Linux the client? Also, to what should I modify the EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST on the Host and on the Client? Should I make any more modifications?

Thank you in advance
