Forum Topic - qnet problem under the 6.2.1 and 6.3.2: (3 Items)
   
qnet problem under the 6.2.1 and 6.3.2  
I have 3 machines with two 6.2.1 and one 6.3.2.
Under /net, and two 6.2.1 machines can see each other, while 6.3.2 can only see itself. All of them are in a switch 
network and can surf the web. What's the problem here?
Thank u.
RE: qnet problem under the 6.2.1 and 6.3.2  
Hi Alex:

	6.3.x uses a new, faster and more resilient version of qnet that is
incompatible with 6.2.1.  If you want the 6.2.1 machines to see 6.3.2, you
have to use npm-qnet-compat.so rather than npm-qnet-l4_lite.so on the 6.3.2
machine (npm-qnet.so is simply a link to npm-qnet-l4_lite.so by default).

Just to let you know, npm-compat will be deprecated in the next release of
networking (it isn't available for io-pkt).

	Robert.

Thank u, Robert. They can see one another now. 
You said more resilient and faster, how specific the difference of performance between them?
