Actually, I believe he _did_ say that the machine had more than one network
interface.
In which case you probably ought to use -WOHost, yes. wotaskd is only
happy being attached to one network interface. And you should set the
-WOHost to that one. (Make sure and use a DNS name that results from
reverse-lookup of the numeric IP). If you want a wotaskd running on both
network interfaces, then I believe you should actually run two of them,
with different WOHost arguments. (You would need to configure them not to
over-write each others config files too, if applicable).
I haven't done this myself, exactly; I don't have a machine with more than
one network interface. But I understand the basic theory. I don't
understand what Jonathan's issue is exactly, or how this applies, but that
is the theory of the WOHost argument. If your machine has more than one
network interface, you probably ought to use it.
Ok, I'm not that good with the technical names and terms and stuff (getting
better all the time though), but if I am understanding it correctly then
this sounds like it's for me. What I have been trying to do is get to a
secure server which is on the same box as all my apps, however, the apps are
in one IP address eg: 999.999.999.99 whereas the secure server side is on IP
888.888.888.88.
What I want to do with the configuration is be able to add IP 888.888.888.88
to WOMonitor which already has the IP address 999.999.999.99 as its host,
but as you know adding the new host from the same box knocks out my
SiteConfig.xml with the new default SiteConfig.xml file it creates and this
is what I am trying to skate around. That's it, that's about the size of it.

This is the only part I have any idea about, not being a Windows person.
However, it'd help if you mentioned more about your configuation (not
privately to me, though).
WOHost
Allows applications to specify which network interface they should bind
to
when running. This option should only be used on hosts with multiple
network
interfaces (IP addresses). Set automatically for instances started by
wotaskd. Thus, this property should be set only for wotaskd and
Monitor.
Some computers have multiple ethernet interfaces (such as having both an
airport and a wired ethernet connection). This set up would be used, for
example, when deploying on a web server with two interfaces (public and
private).
Since you haven't said if this is a situation for you, you can probably
ignore it.
