If you running the server's client check BBSERVEROS in 
~/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg: this must match the [linux] tag in 
~/server/etc/client-local.cfg

If your running a client, check the BBOSTYPE when starting it, for example:
"Hobbit client for linux started on zeb1". Again this must match the tag.

Also check what's in the ~/client/tmp/logfetch.HOSTNAME.{cfg|status}
