Re: [hobbit] Hobbit client strange behavior



Thanks Larry - I overlooked the obvious. The working servers have a fully 
qualified domain name in /etc/sysconfig/network. The non working servers 
just have the host name.

Re: [hobbit] Hobbit client strange behavior






This behavior is usually caused by the host names not agreeing between
the hobbit client and server. The hobbit client uses the return from
'uname -n' for the name it reports to the server. If this doesn't match
whats in bb-hosts, hobbitd will just discard the message.

Thanks,
Larry Barber
