The plot thickens, I can now do a clientupdate...sort of, for some damnable reason it puts itself under /usr/local/hobbit/client/hobbit/client/ (the repeated hobbit/client is not a mistake) any ideas why it would do this?? Running tar xvf on the files on the server creates the directories in the same directory as the tar (i.e. no hobbit/client) so why is it doing it on the client side? Do I need to alter BBHOME somehow?
Thanks,
Jason.

Hi All,
Have been working with clientupdate to get our server's RE-IP to go smoothly but am having problems, I put the tar files into ~/download and alter client-local.cfg to do:
[Foo.bar]
ClientID=server_moveThe file under ~/download is call server_move.tar and has 777 permissions
The problem is it isn't working and I can't see a reason why, when on foo.bar itself I run:
~/bin/clientupdate -update=server_move
And get the output:
tar: blocksize = 0
even adding .tar to the end of the -update does nothing, is there any other way I can see what is happening and why it is going wrong?
Thanks,
Jason.
