[distcc] daemon problems

[Phil R Lawrence]

Thanks for your help re: SSH usage.  For speed I though I'd give daemon usage a try.  Can you help with this problem:

  distcc[13674] (dcc_build_somewhere) Warning: failed to distribute, running locally instead

Also, I still see: 
  make[1]: warning: jobserver unavailable: using -j1.  Add `+' to parent make rule.

Here are versions:
[client]$ distcc --version
distcc 2.11.1 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632)
  built Oct 31 2003 02:28:23

[volunteer]$ ./opt/bin/distccd --version
distccd 2.11.2 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632)
  built Oct 31 2003 01:53:49

Here is my log from the volunteer box:
