First check that no hobbitd and hobbitd_channel processes are running.
You can also run the "ipcs" command and see if there are any shared-
memory segments owned by the hobbit user - there should not be any
when Hobbit is not running.
there were some shared memory segments owned by the UID hobbit had when
I was running beta-4.  I changed the UID and GID  when I upgraded to
beta-5 (and fixed my ldap pam module).

I'm rebooting now to see if that clears it all up....  Yes.
If that doesn't give anything, add "--debug" to the hobbitd
commandline in ~/server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg, and let's see what that
tells us.

2005-02-03 16:22:36 ftok() returns: 0x1070A37

and that is referenced by 

[root at ldap2 hobbit]# ipcs

So I'm guessing it just never cleaned up after I changed the username to
UID 506.
