{bb} Installing BB clients in heterogenous environments

[Ben Pitzer <bpitzer@gmail.com>]

Folks,

Just want to check to make sure I have something straight.  I am
running BB 1.9c on a Solaris 8 server.  The vast majority of my
monitored hosts are also Solaris, with a smattering of Windows
(running the Windows BB client without issue).  I have three Linux
hosts that I want/need to monitor.  As I figure it, in order to do
this, I would need to tar up the $BBHOME from my server and copy it
over to the Linux hosts, then recompile BB on that host, correct? 
Creating a client for it (using $BBHOME/install/bbclient) would not
result in the sources being included in the client package, thus I
would not have them to recompile.  Additionally, if I just downloaded
a fresh copy of BB 1.9c and tried to compile it, I would still need to
get the contents of the $BBEXT and $BBETC directories copied over as
well.

Is there an easier way to set up for clients on a different OS than the server?
