Hi Henrik,

I'm sorry that I answered before looking. It seems like there's no HOME set
for some reason.

I have been checking everything but only looked BBHOME.

Regards
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 ...
