• Nodespy + linux, snoop can't connect

    I've tried running MIS in daemon mode, MIS2 in daemon mode, and MIS2 in
    server mode... regardless of the method, I can see the connection come
    online, chat works (though leaves something to be desired, a true
    split-screen would be preferable) -- but snoop refuses to work at all.

    'Requesting snoop for node #' comes up for a few seconds, then I get the
    mostly non-useful "Unable to establish a session" message. Can't seem to find
    a solution.

    Does this just _not_ work at all for anybody, or is it just me?

    Nodespy works for me in Debian (Raspbian) on a pi.

    Hmmm.. I must be missing something somewhere then/have a permission issue maybe..

    I see the chat<node#>.dat file created when a user connects, and it's owned
    by the appropriate system user/group with reasonable permissions.. as far as
    I can tell that's the file used as teh socket snoop connects to, so I don't
    see what's causing the issue.. :\
