I read the guide when I first set up distcc, but it didn't provide
enough detail for me to understand. I have two computers, a slow one
and a fast one. I would like the fast one to assist the slow one. The
fast machine's IP is 192.168.1.2, and the slow is 192.168.1.4. On the
fast one, I'm running /etc/init.d/distccd and it's /etc/conf.d/distccd
looks like this:
carter ~ # cat /etc/conf.d/distccd
# /etc/conf.d/distccd: config file for /etc/init.d/distccd
DISTCCD_OPTS=""
# this is the distccd executable
DISTCCD_EXEC="/usr/bin/distccd"
# this is where distccd will store its pid file
DISTCCD_PIDFILE="/var/run/distccd/distccd.pid"
# set this option to run distccd with extra parameters
# Default port is 3632. For most people the default is okay.
DISTCCD_OPTS="${DISTCCD_OPTS} --port 3632"
# Logging
# You can change some logging options here:
# --log-file FILE
# --log-level LEVEL [critical,error,warning, notice, info, debug]
#
# Leaving --log-file blank will log to syslog
# example: --log-file /dev/null --log-level warning
# example: --log-level critical
DISTCCD_OPTS="${DISTCCD_OPTS} --log-level critical"
# SECURITY NOTICE:
# It is HIGHLY recomended that you use the --listen option
# for increased security. You can specify an IP to permit connections
# from or a CIDR mask
# --listen accepts only a single IP
# --allow is now mandatory as of distcc-2.18.
# example: --allow 192.168.0.0/24
# example: --allow 192.168.0.5 --allow 192.168.0.150
# example: --listen 192.168.0.2
DISTCCD_OPTS="${DISTCCD_OPTS} --allow 192.168.1.0/24"
#DISTCCD_OPTS="${DISTCCD_OPTS} --listen 192.168.0.2"
# set this for niceness
# Default is 15
DISTCCD_OPTS="${DISTCCD_OPTS} -N 15"
There's no firewall on either.
The slow machine is also running /etc/init.d/distccd.
It's /etc/conf.d/distccd looks like this:
catherine ~ # cat /etc/conf.d/distccd
# /etc/conf.d/distccd: config file for /etc/init.d/distccd
DISTCCD_OPTS=""
# this is the distccd executable
DISTCCD_EXEC="/usr/bin/distccd"
# this is where distccd will store its pid file
DISTCCD_PIDFILE="/var/run/distccd/distccd.pid"
# set this option to run distccd with extra parameters
# Default port is 3632. For most people the default is okay.
DISTCCD_OPTS="${DISTCCD_OPTS} --port 3632"
# Logging

# --log-level LEVEL [critical,error,warning, notice, info, debug]
#
# Leaving --log-file blank will log to syslog
# example: --log-file /dev/null --log-level warning
# example: --log-level critical
DISTCCD_OPTS="${DISTCCD_OPTS} --log-level info
--log-file /var/log/distccd"
# SECURITY NOTICE:
# It is HIGHLY recomended that you use the --listen option
# for increased security. You can specify an IP to permit connections

DISTCCD_OPTS="${DISTCCD_OPTS} --allow 192.168.1.0/24"
#DISTCCD_OPTS="${DISTCCD_OPTS} --listen 192.168.0.2"
# set this for niceness
# Default is 15
DISTCCD_NICE="15"
Is this right?
