[hobbit] hoobit relay

Mon Jan 19 17:42:04 CET 2009

The docs I have say that --BBDISPLAY is obsolete and to use --servers instead and specify all the servers in one go:
--servers ipmaster,$BBSERVERIP 

I don't think you can put the--no-daemon option into your hobbitlaunch.cfg file. For testing purposes disable this entry and run bbproxy on the command line.

When you have bbproxy running tail the logs on your Hobbit master server to verify if the proxy is actually connecting or not. You should see if the proxy is connecting or not, which is the first step since the proxy doesn't seem to be talking to the master as yet...

	[bbproxy]

	        ENVFILE /usr/local/hobbit//server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg

	        CMD $BBHOME/bin/bbproxy --hobbitd --bbdisplay=ip-master --bbdisplay=$BBSERVERIP --report=$MACHINE.bbproxy --no-daemon --pidfile=$BBSERVERLOGS/bbproxy.pid

	OK, how have you configured your clients?

	To help diagnosis you can run bbproxy in the foreground like so:

	$ ~/server/bin/bbproxy --hobbitd --bbdisplay=$BBDISP --no-daemon --debug

	Also, to ensure that your proxy server is talking to your master server you can use the report option (in non-debug mode or in debug mode):

	$ ~/server/bin/bbproxy --report --hobbitd --bbdisplay=$BBDISP

		Hi Simon,

		You can run the bbproxy program with whatever flavour if parameters you need (check bbproxy man page), but this will work:

		$ ~/server/bin/bbproxy --hobbitd --bbdisplay=$BBDISP 

		Then configure BBDISP in the .../etc/hobbitclient.cfg file on the remote clients to point to the IP address of the server running bbproxy.

		HTH

			The bbproxy source code is held in source_dir/bbproxy/

			If you have installed the Hobbit server then the bbproxy binaries will be in ~hobbit/server/bin/bbproxy

			I would recommend looking at the man pages for bbproxy(8) and maybe bbmessage.cgi(8) as well.

			Others may have example config files that I cannot provide which will help too.
