Possible configuration dir conflict in multi-host environment (NFS-mounted home directories) #27
Description
Summary
Hi!
The configuration directory is created in$HOME/.matlab/MWI as ports/<port_number>.
$ ls -1 ~/.matlab/MWI/ports/
21119
25505
33378
36544
40531
55927
57936
8887
8888
But there's no distinction per host, and this could result in potential conflicts in multi-host environments, where $HOME directories are NFS-mounted on multiple hosts for instance. In that case, a server running on host1:8888 and another one running on host2:8888 will collide as they'll both want to store their session information in the same ~/.matlab/MWI/ports/8888 directory.
A more robust way would probably to store information about the server hostname in the path.
Like:
$HOME/.matlab/MWI/hosts/<hostname>/ports/<port_number>
