client named web6 has "<a href="http://127.0.0.1">127.0.0.1</a> localhost.localdomain localhost"<br>
server named moon has "<a href="http://127.0.0.1">127.0.0.1</a> moon localhost <a href="http://moon.giggle.com">moon.giggle.com</a>"<br>
<br>
The server works fine for a dozen of clients. This web6 client is the
only one has this behavior and not sure where it gets the idea it
should connect to localhost instead of the server I told it to in
/etcdefault/hobbit-client?!<br>

file. RH has a bad habit of setting the fqdn to 127.0.0.1….. In my
opinion, the server's fqdn should be the external IP address, and only "localhost"
should be 127.0.0.1….</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">hi, there,<br>
I have both client & server of 4.2-RC-20060712 on Redhat Linux 9. Other
RHL9 clients work fine. One, mysteriously, failed to start.
hobbitclient.log shows it tries to bond with <a href="http://127.0.0.1:1984" title="http://127.0.0.1:1984" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">127.0.0.1:1984</a>,
as fails miserably. As in other clients, I define the bb server's IP address in
/etc/default/hobbit-client. -x execution of the init script seems it did
source the /etc/default/hobbit-client and got the correct bb server IP address.
Any idea ? This RH9 boxen doesn't have bind-util package installed, that's the
only difference I can think of. </span></font></p>
