Greetings,

 In follow up to my initial query. When I check my apache logs, I see what
follows below. I am a bit confused as to why a connection attempt to port
1984 is being attempted. I modified the bbd setting in hobbitserver.cfg, and
also added "--listen=0.0.0.0:8080 --ghosts=log" to hobbitlaunch.cfg. I know
that I am missing something very simple, but I can not see what....


Again, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

Greetings,

 I am receiving the following error on a recently configured hobbit server.
When I attempt to view the Ghost List all I see on the page is:

Failed to retrieve ghostlist from server

The only difference between this server and others that I have setup is that
the bbd port is set to 8080 instead of 1984.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike
