I want configure my hobbit server like this: Bbwin talk with hobbit-slave And hobbit-slave all display to hobbit master and general How to do and instal bbrelay ?
You use bbproxy - "bbrelay" is a Big Brother thing.
bbproxy is a separate network daemon; this is what your clients (BBWin) will talk to. bbproxy then forwards the data from your clients to all of the Hobbit servers.
This is straight-forward if you have a dedicated box running bbproxy. If you're going to run bbproxy on the same box which is also running one of your Hobbit servers, it is a bit more tricky because both bbproxy and the hobbitd (Hobbit server daemon) will want to listen for data on port 1984.
So in that case you configure hobbitd to listen on another port (e.g. 2084), and then tell bbproxy to forward to that port.
All of this happens in hobbitlaunch.cfg. In the [hobbitd] section, you add the "--listen=0.0.0.0:2084" option to the hobbitd CMD setting. Further down you enable the [bbproxy] section (deleted the DISABLED line) and add the target Hobbit servers that bbproxy should forward to. E.g.
CMD $BBHOME/bin/bbproxy --bbdisplay=127.0.0.1:2084,10.0.2.3:1984 ... more options
will send the data to the local server on port 2084, and to another server at 10.0.2.3 (using the default port, 1984).
