Hi John,

This is weird, we use CERTI on Ubuntu, Fedora 11-->14 & XP as well.
Concerning SELinux, I don't know on our systems SELinux is disabled (totally).

Does the "certi::NetworkError" occur as soon as rtig is started or
when you launch billard (or any other federate)?

Do you have "http_proxy" or "HTTP_PROXY" env var positionned?
If yes could you try to unset those?

I will check my fedora setup when I get home this evening.  I tried my ubuntu machine this morning.
rtig runs ok.   When I try to launch the billard federate I get the following.

address@hidden:~/src/certi/CERTI-3.4.0-Source/test/Billard$ billard -fTest -FTest.fed -n1
CERTI Billard 3.4.0
RTIA:: RTIA has thrown NetworkError exception.
RTIA:: Reason: Proxy connection refused: HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden
RTIA:: End execution.
UN Socket(RecevoirUN) : : Connection reset by peer
libRTI: exception: NetworkError (read)
Billard::main: RTI exception: RTIinternalError [libRTI: Network Read Error waiting RTI reply].
Exiting.

I have the following for http_proxy

address@hidden:~/src/certi/CERTI-3.4.0-Source/test/Billard$ echo $http_proxy
http://134.20.11.88:8080/

I hesitate to unset this on my work computer because I am not sure I 
understand the consequences.

I now have the billard test running on my XP system (virtual machine running inside vbox).  The menu driven launch does not seem to work for the federates, but if I open command windows and start the federates, it appears to work.  Maybe; I am still studying the result to see if it makes any sense.
