Thanks for the info! I ended up finding the port thanks to an nmap port scan. =) However, I still can't get it to work! With this information, I can successfully connect to the PPT VRPN server, but then I don't receive any Tracker updates. I've looked with tcpdump and there's definitely steady traffic, but I don't see any activity with the various Remote types (Tracker, Analog, Dial and Button).

A few pieces of info - the VRPN code I'm using reports version 6.06, while the PPT VRPN server reports 6.04. Also, this is PPT version 2.02. I've made sure VRPN is selected in the configuration dialog, and that the streaming mode has been entered when I've tested.

Here's the output of one of the test clients included with the VRPN linux code:

Writing to /tmp/vrpn_emergency_log instead.
vrpn_Connection: VRPN Note: minor version number doesn't match: (prefer 'vrpn: v
er. 06.06', got 'vrpn: ver. 06.04  0').  This is not normally a problem.

The vrpn_Clock messages keep coming, but never anything else from vrpn_Tracker.

So, any ideas what's up? Anything I can check / try out? Thanks again!
