Hi -
I'm running ganglia 3.05 on a cluster built from several Apple Macs
running the Darwin 9.5.0 Kernel.  

I *could* update ganglia, but I'm hoping someone could help me out... 
I had this configuration working earlier, but then we moved the cluster
to a different sub-net and I'm having some problems:

1) I remember when I initially setup ganglia on this system, I was not
able to get things going, and the problem was that I had to use
224.0.0.1 as the multicast address in all my gmond.conf files 
(this is a special multicast address that means "all IP hosts"...
I remember trouble-shooting and finding a post somewhere that said this
had to be done on Apple systems... sure enough, if I use any other
multicast address, I cannot "see" any of the machines in the cluster).

2) The problem now is that when I bring up the ganglia webpage, I see
all the compute nodes just fine, but the head node appears with its IP
address, and not its name.  I can't for the life of me figure out
where this is coming from.

3) We have another Mac cluster running ganglia on the same sub-net, and
one of its nodes is showing up (by IP address only) on the ganglia page
of the cluster that I am maintaining.  I suspect this is because the
admin for that cluster is also using the 224.0.0.1 multicast address and
somehow my cluster is picking up its info... but I'm not sure.

Any ideas on any of the above?   Like I said, I'm willing to upgrade my
ganglia, but I'd like to hear from others who are running on a Mac...

TIA
