hmm so the IP4/6 issues is a bit more intricate. If I just use the node/computer names it will always use ip6 if it is local but ip4 for external...

hmm after the IPv4 force hello_world_distributed seems to connect but i get: `(T--------/----------------.----/----------------) P--------/----------------.---- 13:22.59.334 [0000000000000001][ PT] ({0000000100000000, 0000000000000000}:({0000000100000000, 0000000000000000}:component_invalid[-1]:0000000000000000):register_worker_action) + another line with binary output` in the agas debug...

Fun stuff ..... after fighting more with `hello_world_distributed` and two nodes the result is: It works: if the console node is running the debug build and the worker node is...

Hmm what works: Running two localities one the same PC. Running debug version on the console locality with two separate pcs works. (so tcp communication in general works fine. no...

So ok after figuring out that the reason for the strange connection behavior was the windows firewall, I got `hello_world_distributed` running. Somehow the firewall could distinguish between the debug/release executable...
