[hobbit] bbcmd on clients does not set MACHINE and MACHINEDOTS

[Rolf Schrittenlocher]

Hi Frédéric,

I'd prefer not to as we have to set  some of these variables to 
different values because of several virtual aliases using one  hobbit 
installation. Why don't you put a line in those scripts which reads 
those variables?

regards
Rolf
