Hi Martin,

~hobbit/client/logs/hobbitclient.log file have below log entries and no
other.

-bash-3.00$ less hobbitclient.log

I did get a successful tenet to server from client as shown below:

-bash-3.00$ telnet xxx.xxx.xx.xx9 1984
Trying xxx.xxx.xx.xx9...
Connected to xxx.xxx.xx.xx9.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection to xxx.xxx.xx.xx9 closed by foreign host.
-bash-3.00$


Please advice.

Thanks,

Srini
