Re: {bb} disable in bb 1.9

[Andrew Culver <aculver@uwo.ca>]

I've recompiled again, this time I also used -DDEBUG=1 and I'm getting 
lots of output in BBOUT. I'm testing by doing:

echo "disable proto.its.uwo.ca.swap 240m testing" | telnet 
orwell.its.uwo.pri 1984

from my desktop (my desktop is not proto) and I'm seeing this in the logs:

INCOMING CONNECTION FROM: 3271648385 - 129.100.1.195
CHECKSECUITY DEFAULT RETURNING 1
NEW INCOMING MESSAGE
about to accept()
MESSAGE LEN: 45 TOTAL: 0
REC'D: disable proto.its.uwo.ca.swap 240m hostdown

IGNORE MESSAGE from 129.100.1.195: disable proto.its.uwo.ca.swap 240m 
hostdown

Why is it ignoring my disable messages?

I've tried sending from various hosts but they're all ignored. The only 
time it isn't ignored is when I send it from the BBDISPLAY host itself, 
then I see nothing in the log (maybe it's just getting lost in all the 
noise).

I can also see in the debug info that bbd is checking to see if the 
disable file exists. I can even touch a file which it will see as 
expired and delete.

Help?
