The example I see in etc/conf.d/distccd lists each allowed ip address
after its own --allow argument. Furthermore, you might consider
whether you'd rather allow anyone on your local subnet to connect --
for example if you add new hosts -- and specify in cidr notation
something like "--allow 192.168.1.0/24"
As it is now, i think only Robotech will be allowed to distribute code
on any host. I would think galactica would be included in that list,
but for some reason it doesn't seem to want to accept the connections.
I wonder, do you have MAKEOPTS set high enough on your systems to
compile on more than 2 computers at once? D
id you use distcc-config?
Have you set the configs to accept the number of jobs you want each
computer to accept maximum? This should be low for the pII and much
higher for the X2.
Finally, I wanted you to entertain the notion that if robotech's
make.conf (wait, are these names from Transformers?) is set to compile
for a PIII, with sse instructions and such, the PII may not be able to
do it, or if it can, might be required to build a crossdev toolchain
too. FWIW, pIIs on my network are no longer allowed to 'help' the
faster computers compile because they generally tend to slow them down
rather than speed them up.
Good luck!!
