I'm not sure what the difference is, but on one of my
machines, the agent appears to work correctly, it binds
to the ethernet address. However, on two other
machines, it alway binds to 127.0.0.1. The machine
that works is a fairly vanilla RedHat 7.3 machine. Of
the two that fail, one is RH7.3 the other is RH7.2.

All three appeared to compile correctly. It appears to
be a runtime issue as I tried moving the executable
from the working machine to the RH7.3 failing machine
and got the same results.

The only difference I can see (aside from the host
address), is that the machine that works has an
Internet valid (I.E. non-rfc 1918) address and is not
subnetted. The two failing machines have 10. address
addresses with a 16 bit netmask.

Anything I can do to provide more info?

Thanks,
Brad

    I am seeing the same results on a RH7.2 box. Compiles OK,
    valid Network segment on eth0, but binds to 127.0.0.1

    the agent will try to bind to any ip address... do you have
    firewall policies installed that would prevent TCP port 2300?

    Urrr. I don't know how to tell you this...

    This bug was submitted three years ago. I havn't had those
    machines for a couple of years.

    Might as well close this ticket, I havn't used Cheops since
    then either.

    Is someone starting development on it again? I'll have to
    look at it again.

    Thanks,
    Brad
