[hobbit] Hobbit and bb-central

[Michael A. Price]

It worked ;-)

I did just like you said ....
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OK, the best bet then is probably to build the binaries on another
system, and link them statically. I.e. find a linux box where you can
build the Hobbit client. Run the normal "./configure --client", then
edit the generated Makefile and near the bottom right after where it
says
   # Add local CFLAGS etc. settings here
add this line:
   CFLAGS=-static

Then run "make" as usual and "make install", then you should be able to
just copy the client directory to the secured servers.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It required some hand editing of the source codes files to link to the 
currect headers in the include directories.
But it worked, and its working now :-)

thanx so much, michael
