RE: {bb} 1.9e client/server on the same host

["Homan, Charles" <Charles.Homan@gdc4s.com>]

Hi, Olga,

It might help to think of them as two separate applications.

First, you have BB Server.  In your scenario, BBHOME is /usr/local/bb, and you start it by running "/usr/local/bb/runbb.sh start" (presumably in a start script at boot time.)

Next, you have BB Client.  Its BBHOME is /usr/local/bbc, NOT /usr/local/bb.  It must have its own bb-hosts in /usr/local/bbc/etc, and you start it by running "/usr/local/bbc/runbb.sh start" (presumably in a start script that runs after the server's start script.)  Note that Client's bb-hosts must have the same BBDISPLAY, etc. as the Server's bb-hosts.

Hope this helps!
Charles
