Please try setting BBGHOSTS to "2" in hobbitserver.cfg. Restart Hobbit, and after 10 minutes check the "hobbitd" column on the Hobbit server. Are there any hosts listed there ?
Yes, all my missig clients are listed as ghost + 2 clients which are at both places (as ghosts and showing green dimonds)+ 1 client that just turned to purple.
in ghosts file IP numbers are translated to nonqualified names - if compared with bb-hosts:
in bb-hosts:
130.225.128.126 sieglinde.imada.sdu.dk 130.225.128.167 zaira.imada.sdu.dk
in ghosts: 130.225.128.126 reported host sieglinde 130.225.128.167 reported host zaira
The hostname you see in the "ghosts" list is the hostname the the clients use when they report data. This *must* match the one found in the bb-hosts file, or Hobbit will simply discard the client message because it doesn't know which host it belongs to.
So you can either change your clients to use the "--hostname" option (e.g. use "--hostname=sieglinde.imada.sdu.dk" when calling runclient.sh), or add "CLIENT:sieglinde" to the entries in the bb-hosts file.
