OK. I take it you have your main BB server up and running? Good!
Install the hobbit server onto the secondary boxes. Once it is installed
Do not start it!
go into the server/etc/ directory of you new hobbit installation. Edit
the file hobbitlaunch.cfg. Look for bbproxy. There you will find these
instructions
# "bbproxy" is the Hobbit proxy server that allows you to forward status
messages
# from a protected network to your Hobbit server. It is not enabled by
default,
# since it would conflict with the hobbitd task.
# If you need to run this, then disabled hobbitd and the hobbitd-modules
# above, then enable this. Make sure you enter the IP-address of your
# Hobbit server in the command-line, so that the proxy knows where to
forward
# status messages.
Follow them :)
As a side note, do you want the proxy servers to do network tests? If so
then you will want to use the NET:location tag in bb-hosts to seperate
the client machines.
Cheers
Iain
