[hobbit] hoobit relay

OK, it may be a documentation issue, I tried it with the --servers (like I said you should try!) and it failed. I tried it with the --bbdisplay= and it worked, so going back on what I said earlier, try this:
 
./bbcmd ./bbproxy --hobbitd --no-daemon --bbdisplay=192.168.252.80,$BBSERVERIP -report=192.168.252.78

 
Sorry,

	Sorry, that was a case of my fingers working faster than my brain. You need to set up the environment which can be easy done like this, assuming you are logged in as the hobbit user and in the server/bin directory :

	 

	./bbcmd ./bbproxy --hobbitd --no-daemon --servers=192.168.252.80,$BBSERVERIP -report=192.168.252.78

		I would recommend disabling bbproxy in your hobbitlaunch.cfg like this:

		 

		====

		[bbproxy]

		   DISABLED

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

		    CMD $BBHOME/bin/bbproxy --hobbitd --servers=192.168.252.80,$BBSERVERIP -report=192.168.252.78 --pidfile=$BBSERVERLOGS/bbproxy.pid

		    LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bbproxy.log

		====

		Then login as the hobbit user id, restart Hobbit so that the proxy isn't running:

		$ server/hobbit.sh restart

		 

		and then run the bbproxy like this:

		$ server/bin/bbcmdserver/bin/bbproxy --hobbitd --no-daemon --servers=192.168.252.80,$BBSERVERIP -report=192.168.252.78

		 

		If this works then you should start getting reports at your Hobbit master server from the proxy server, every five minutes.

			The docs I have say that --BBDISPLAY is obsolete and to use --servers instead and specify all the servers in one go: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

				My bbproxy :

				[hobbitd]

				DISABLED

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

				        CMD hobbitd --pidfile=$BBSERVERLOGS/hobbitd.pid --restart=$BBTMP/hobbitd.chk --checkpoint-file=$BBTMP/hobbitd.chk --checkpoint-interval=600 --log=$BBSERVERLOGS/hobbitd.log  --admin-senders=127.0.0.1,$BBSERVERIP --listening=127.0.0.1 --store-clientlogs=!msgs

				[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

				        LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bbproxy.log

				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.
