[distcc] why always compiling local if host not accessible ?

[Heiko_Elger at arburg.com]

distcc: version 2.12
OS: Windows XP Professional
cygwin: latest version

Hello,

I'm sorry - I send this quistion again cause there was no response ...

Why is distcc always compiling locally if it cannot contact a distcc server?

IMHO it would be better if this job is requeued to the new host list, in which
the not responding host is removed, instead of always be compiled on the
localhost.


What's your opinion?



Mit freundlichen Gruessen
best regards
