The hostname command shows "debian". But with using the -a option you choose 
your own alias, right?
If I run pvfs2-server /etc/pvfs2-fs.conf -d
I get:

[S 01/23 14:29] PVFS2 Server on node debian version 2.8.1 starting...
[E 14:29:14.618851] Configuration file error. No host ID specified for alias 
debian.
[E 14:29:14.618929] Error: Please check your config files.
[E 14:29:14.618999] Error: Server aborting.
[D 14:29:14.619081] *** server shutdown in progress ***
[D 14:29:14.619165] [*] halting logging interface

Maybe is something wrong with the tcp protocol??

Thanks,
Dimos.
