[Spread-users] config problem

[David Charles Todd]

I'm using a single board computer which hnags out in a network with 4 
other SBC's. We're trying to use spread on this system.

The problem I am having is in testing. Spread seems to be asking for the 
IP address of the host by running gethostbyname(). However, its hostname 
bears no relation to its IP address, since it's on a different net than 
its intended final resting place.

Why does spread want to know this?


Also, how can I configure around it?


Thanks in advance for your advice.
