Have you configured your client(s) for server-side or client-side
configuration ? It's the first question asked when you configure
the client:
  Server side client configuration, or client side [server] ?

And what host are you editing the client-local.cfg and
hobbit-clients.cfg files on ? On the client or on the server?
