Two things to check first, first can you connect on port 1984, try to telnet
from the client to the Hobbit server? Secondly, set the flag on hobbitd that
will cause it to report unknown hosts, I can't remember what it is off the
top of my head, look at the hobbitd man page.

Thanks,
Larry

 Hello again all,
   To re-visit my question about the hobbit client, I have done the
following:

 - downloaded and compiled the hobbit client on a SEPERATE machine from
the hobbit server
   server = hercules
   client = castor
 - put an entry in bb-hosts on the server (hercules) for the client
(castor) that looks like this:
     10.10.0.6           castor # trace

- configured hobbitclient.cfg on the client to look like this:
    BBDISP="10.10.0.13"             # IP address of the Hobbit server

- started the hobbit client on the client machine (castor)

I get NO client data. All I get is the tests that are originated from the
server (conn,info,trends)


Any ideas?
