zeroconf hosts have a hardcoded slots value of 4? #145

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I noticed that the value for the number of jobs on a zeroconf host is hardcoded 
to 4 in hosts.c

if ((ret = dcc_zeroconf_add_hosts(ret_list, ret_nhosts, 4, ret_prev) != 0))

This has been causing all kinds of issues for me when testing it - for some 
reason, with 1 zeroconf host, and localhost/4... i get a `distcc -j` value of 
20! If this is still being developed/maintained; would it be possible to send 
the number of available job slots when using zeroconf/avahi to detect them?

Unless I'm missing something obvious... which is possible :)

Ah, I see this was reported in 2008 & 2010 :( Guessing it won't be fixed any 
time soon then
