Re: [hobbit] building bbproxy



If I delay or disable a host.service on one of the display server (thru gui
or email) will bbproxy be able to tell the other display server about it?

Then you must setup the hobbitd process to listen on a separate IP (e.g.
127.0.0.1) so it doesn't conflict with bbproxy listening on the same
port.
