The clients don't listen on port 1984, the server does. The clients initiate connection to the server, not the other way around.

I'm doing a new installation of Hobbit. I followed the directions from the web and got to "Congratulations, you now have a running Hobbit server!" without problems.
Then I added a few clients - the Hobbit server seems to be working fine (immediately as they showed up in the web page http and conn went green) but I cannot seem to get the client installed and working correctly. I tar-ed and copied the client directory to each client machine, created a hobbit user there and setup the ~hobbit/client/ directory.
I can launch the client:
runclient.sh start
and the client/logs/clientlaunch.log shows it started; ps -ef shows it's still running - but client/logs/hobbitclient.log is empty
I cannot telnet to the clients on port 1984 - so naturally the hobbit server thinks bbd is dead.
Do I have to build the hobbit client on all the clients? Or have I missed something else?
Thanks,
Frank
