I went through all the logs and couldn't find anything remotely similar to:
unable to distribute to xxxhost. As a matter of fact, the logs never mention
a single host I specified. Not even something like: reading config file,
found 3 hosts. No it simply always default to localhost :( It looks like if
the host settings are never read.

Furthermore I couldn't find an equivalent of distcc-config for W32 (Cygwin).
If someone does have that, please let me know.

Thanks for your help!

Cheers,


Martijn
