1. Is there a hobbitd_client process running on your client? There
should be. 
I do not see one. I ran 'sh runclient.sh start' as hobbit user. Anything
else I need to do?

2. There should be a 'hobbitd_channel --channel=client ....' process
running on your server, as well. If its not there you may need to enable
it in hobbitlaunch.cfg
Yes there is
3. Are you running a 4.1.1 server? Earlier versions of the server would
Yes I am using 4.1.1
not know how to handle the hobbitclient feed. 
Also, the Hobbit client uses the hostname from "uname -n" as the name
by which it reports. If that doesn't match your entry in the Hobbit
server bb-hosts file, the client reports are silently ignored.
I was using fully qualified domain name on bb-hosts. Changed that to
reflect `uname -n` which is just host name for this one client. Will see
if that fixes the problem

Thanks
