Re: {bb} more problems running bb on fedora core 4 system

[Daniel O Winkless <wink@usgs.gov>]

Hi Gene,

        I'm still using the C release of BB and I'm quite happy with it.  But, I've been reading about the later releases, the releases where BB is in two parts, the client part and the server part.

        I think the files you copied from the client tree are needed only on the client.  But here's where a lot of people seem to be confused with the new release:

A given computer can be: A BB client, A BB server, or BOTH

To be both, you have to install and configure both parts.  And you have to launch both parts.

        It sounds to me as if you have started only the client portion and there is no server running to receive the connections.

                        Dan

NO firewall.  I made absolutely sure it was not
set up at system  
install.  I verified it was NOT running again today.
