Help with Multi-PC Communication for Multi-Sensor Platform using Pyre and ZeroMQ

[BertramV]

I am currently developing a multi-sensor platform and using Pyre and ZeroMQ to establish a communication backbone. The goal is to enable communication across multiple physical PCs.

Problem: The standard chat example works fine for multiple instances on a single machine, but I’m having trouble getting it to work across multiple PCs. When I launch a new instance on one PC, I can see it on all other instances running on the same machine, but it doesn’t appear across different machines. Objective: I need help configuring communication across multiple PCs so that instances running on different machines can communicate with each other as part of a group.

What I’ve Tried: Running multiple instances of the chat example on a single machine works fine. However, when running the same example on different machines, I cannot see instances across the network. What I Need: Guidance on how to configure Pyro and ZeroMQ for communication between instances on multiple physical machines. Suggestions on best practices for establishing a group communication setup across multiple PCs.

We'd need more info as Pyre should just work out of the box on regular systems connected to a regular unrestricted network. This won't be the case for any Apple or Windows system. Also try Zyre which has been developed further than Pyre.
