This is usually caused by the client sending a different name than what the server is expecting. The Hobbit client uses the client name as reported by uname. You can use the CLIENT directive in the bb-hosts file to patch things up.

All,

I am switching my clients over from using the big brother client to using the hobbit client. I am having problems with 2 of my clients that are running Red Hat 9. They seem to be sending data but the server is not collecting the data. Other client systems are working. Any ideas of where I need to look?????

Below is from the hobbitclient.log were I turned on debugging for an external program that is working on my other clients.
