update: I figured out at least this issue.
This may be in the PDF documents, but I missed it.
it seems that:
* both systems must have system users with the same UIG/GID/username
(something I don't usually make an effort to do)
* if you add a system user, you need to run gbch-user -R to reload
the system user list
* finally, run gbch-quit, then gbch-start so that xbnetserv reloads
the user list
Please, feel free to correct any misconceptions I have, but this set
ot steps got em past my problem.
Thank you!

thanks for your reply. I have gone so far as to set up identical
users on both sides (including UID and GID). This after looking
over the source for rbtr.c
I can't help but think that there's something simple I'm missing.
Can I make GB log connection attempts?

list. ]

I'm sifting back through the reference manuals to
see if I missed anything, but I thought I might get a better
answer here.
My setup:
Arch Linux 64-bit on a Linode (cloud server) as the master
GNUBatch server
CenttOS 5.x 64-bit on a Linode as a workstation
GNUBatch cloned from the git repo, dated 2010-10-22.
./configure, make, make install (install needed a few minor
fixes) on both boxes
What works:
I can submit jobs logged in to the GNUBatch server, either as
gnubatch, root, or myself
no issues with GNUBatch - the jobs run as planned
What I can't get to work:
I can't seem to submit jobs to the GNUBatch server from any
remote workstation. I have run
gbch-start on my workstation, and made sure that the services
were defined in /etc/services. I get:
--------
address@hidden ~]$ gbch-rr -Q dev-mongo -u mmoser -T13:57
./batch
No such valid user on remote devmongo
--------
(I realize that -u is probably redundant, but I get the same
response if I don't use it). I get the same response whether
I'm submitting as me (mmoser), root, or gnubatch.
I do have reciprocal entries in etc/gnubatch.hosts:
my workstation declares dev-mongo with an alias of
devmongo
dev-mongo (the master GNUBatch server) declares the
workstation as a host
I hope I've given you enough info, and thanks in advance for
any advice.
Mike
It does need the user name set up on the remote system to be
roughly the same.
I have put in code recently to overcome that requirement and
I'll put it up hopefully in the next month or so together with a
whole raft of other stuff, notably a new MS Windows client
suite.
