Ok so I'm attempting to set up hobbitfetch for the first time with a few
new clients. I've followed all the steps that should have gotten it working:
1. Enabled the msgcache on the client and verified connectivity on port
1984 from the server to the client.
2. Set the BBDISP to 127.0.0.1 on the client.
3. Added pulldata to the bb-hosts entry on the server and made sure the
IP being used is a real and valid one.
4. Enabled the hobbitfetch process on the server.
Everything appears to be running on both ends, but no data was coming
back. So I enabled debug mode for hobbitfetch and msgcache on each end.
hobbitfetch.log:
----------------
2008-05-07 21:56:02 Queuing request 2 to 10.10.10.10:1984 for
host.foo.bar: 'pullclient 1

Looks ok I guess, not sure what exact arguments pullclient is normally
supposed to feed to the client though.
And the msgcache.log:
---------------------
2008-05-07 21:52:44 New connection
2008-05-07 21:52:44 -> oksender
2008-05-07 21:52:44 <- oksender(1-a)
2008-05-07 21:52:44 Got pullclient request: pullclient 1
2008-05-07 21:52:44 Saved client response:
---------------------
However in the hobbitclient.log I get the default version output as if
the data being sent to the bb command isn't formatted right:
Hobbit version 4.2.0
Usage: /cust/bb/client/bin/bb [--debug]
[--proxy=http://ip.of.the.proxy:port/] RECIPIENT DATA
RECIPIENT: IP-address, hostname or URL
DATA: Message to send, or "-" to read from stdin
If I try running the command: ./bb 127.0.0.1 "pullclient"
on the client, or the same with the client's IP from the server, I get
nothing. Now I found something when searching the mailing list:
http://www.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2007/07/msg00513.html
So I applied this patch to my client just to see if that would help, but
no dice. Are there any other things I can try, debug commands, etc?
