I should really do my homework a little more before posting.

I compiled hobbit on a 64 bit machine, and I was trying to install the
client on a 32 bit machine...  Weak!

 
I guess I'll have to compile the hobbit source twice, once for 32 bit
and once for 64 bit, or compile it just on 32 bit as that client should
work on 64 bit machines as well...

If you do a tar -xf movethesefiles.tar /home/hobbit/client and SCP that
tar file, does the tar remain the same size at least?

I found out what the problem was, and it wasn't the home directory being
mounted noexec...

 
When I tarred up the client directory on the server and copied it over
and untarred it, all the file sizes changed.

So then I tried to scp a couple of the files over, i.e. bb, bbcmd, etc,
and the same thing happened.


So now I need to figure out how to copy them from one system to the next
without it messing up the executables.

It didn't affect any of the .sh files, like hobbitclient.sh...

 
Thanks,
Taylor

Rob, have you come across that one before or was that the most amazing
guess ever?

Im installing the hobbit linux client on some Suse 10.1 test
machines.
 I just tarred up the client directory from hobbit server and
installed
 it to /home/hobbit/client on the target machines

 If I try to start the client using ./runclient.sh start as
user hobbit
 or root, I get the following error:

 ./runclient.sh: line 83:
/home/hobbit/client/bin/hobbitlaunch: cannot
 execute binary file

 Permissions on hobbitlaunch are fine, any ideas?
       
        You've mounted /home with the noexec option.
