Thanks Henrik!
It's the latter and it works fine!!!
Now I know that Hobbit does not look at settings like BBDISPLAY etc.
in the bb-hosts file; it uses the values from the
hobbitserver.cfg-file, so on AH you must enter the IP adresses of the
HS! Thanks to the debug-option and the log-file that told me what was
going on :-)
Regards,
Peter
A very tiny bb-hosts containing hosts to be tested with the specific
oratns and ssh test:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx system1 # oratns:1527 ssh
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxy system2 # oratns:1527 ssh
...
Enabled:
[hobbitd]
[bbdisplay]
[bbcombotest]
[bbnet]
[bbretest]
