SV: [hobbit] Strange things?

["Ebeling, Lars" <lars.ebeling (at) duni.se>]

Hi again,

Off course HOME is set, but perhaps it's wrong. Should it be Hobbits home ie
/home/hobbit or the users home, that was set during installation
/home/bb/bb? Hobbit is run as bb, is it difficult to change that to hobbit?

/Lars

Hobbit will always do a DNS loookup on the hostname to find the IP of your
host - the IP in bb-hosts is only a fall-back measure. If you want to force
network tests to use the IP from bb-hosts, 
then add the "testip" keyword to the bb-hosts line, or run bbtest-net with
"--dns=ip"

This is unrelated, but it's an odd Unix system that does not have the HOME
environment variable defined ...
