I m a bit unclear as to the syntax used for the BBDISPLAYS variable.
If I want to set up 2 servers, for redundancy, I set BBDISP to 0.0.0.0,
but what is used for separating the servers in BBDISPLAYS ? Just a
blank, a comma, ... ?
A blank.
And on the replicated servers, I guess that I have to modify both
server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg and client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg with those
same settings ?
Correct. Especially, make sure your clients are configured to send data
to both servers.

This may be a tangent to this.  I haven't looked at the DMZ
functionality but it seems to me that one could use that to have
multiple servers set up....just have them all grab a copy of the client
output (set the client up as a DMZ client regardless).   Would this work?
Why not have bbproxy set up on both sides, with hobbitd running on a different 
port, and have each bbproxy forward to both hobbitd's?
