--allow won't accept domain names

[Kevin Haddock]

I and my friend have dynamic ip's and we would like to use each other's processing power to do compiles but our IP changes periodically.  Not being able to use a domain name as an argument to --allow is a PITA!  Not only that, but we are tunneling distcc thru ssh so putting --allow 0.0.0.0/32 doesn't seem the proper thing to do (even though I suppose we could block the input traffic at the firewall).  Unless someone has a better idea, either ---allow should not be mandatory or it should take a domain name as an argument, don't you think?

silly me!  It seems I have another problem.  I initiall didn't get that distccd doesn't run in a ssh configuration.  I must be having another problem because distcc doesn't seem to be working at all.  I'm running gentoo with distcc hosts set up and distcc in the FEATURES variable of make.conf.  Any idea how I go about debugging this thing?

--allow only applies to non-ssh connections.
So if you're using ssh connections, you can just use
--allow=127.0.0.1, which will allow non-ssh connections only from localhost.

Do you have distcc installed?
Check that distcc is in your PATH.
Is distccd running?  Use ps to check.
Then try setting DISTCC_VERBOSE=1 and run distcc manually (e.g. touch foo.c && distcc gcc -c foo.c) and look at both the output from distcc and at the distccd server's log messages (normally in /var/log/messages, IIRC).
