Hi - nice work. I am doing a demo on a short schedule and little budget. Oddjob really filled a niche and is saving a lot of time.
I have multiple server PCs and one client PC. I would like to run Oddjob in the background on all the server PCs, with the GUI running only on the client PC. I plan on running the server Oddjobs with the Java Service Wrapper.
My question: Is there a way to run an Oddjob server without the GUI popping up? I would like to control all of the Oddjob server instances from just the one GUI running of the client PC.
I'm sure I can change code and make it work the way I need it to, but I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss a flag or option in the documentation.
Thanks, Scott

Crud - never mind. Everything works just as I need it to as long as I don't start the GUI as the top level job - duh.
Sorry for not replying - I've been on holiday for the last few weeks. http://www.rgordon.co.uk/projects/oddjob/userguide/beyondgui.html should give you some pointers if you're still having problems.
