Could I just check that you've got the (sysconfdir)/gnubatch.hosts set up OK? If necessary, you might want to put "localaddress <my IP address>" in there. On some systems gethostbyaddr applied to the result of gethostname gives 127.0.1.1 or something rather than the "external" IP address in which case you can set it there. That will cause the network code to get confused about who jobs belong to which I suspect is what's happening. I think I'm going to have to forget gethostname and kick off by connecting to something and fish the IP address out of getsockname(). But I'll still have to have the address overridden by localaddress as some machines have more than one IP. But that won't fix DHCP machines, perhaps I'll have an alternate syntax for a hostname/IP and port number to connect to and getsockname-ify from there. And I'm going to have to worry about IPv6 too. Please submit your bright ideas here. --
