            I used the name pd-slave.  Hope that's right.



    Nope, slavenames are
    in /var/lib/buildbot/pd-master/master.cfg, line 65, on
    128.238.56.50. You have to use the unique slavename which
    matches the slave.

Silly me, why don't i just send them to you...? ubuntuLTS386, ubuntuLTS64, ubuntuCurrent386, debianStable386, macosx104_386, macosx104_powerpc, macosx106_64, windowsXP386

I think you should be able to ssh to buildbot on debian-stable-i386, ubuntu-lts-i386 (128.238.56.55) and ubuntu-current-i386 (128.238.56.53) so you could make those yourself. We need to figure out how to install buildbot on Mac OS X and Windows/Cygwin. Both are supposed to include buildbot, fink has version 0.8.0, will that work? I think in order to get the Cygwin one, I need to upgrade Cygwin entirely, which will also need to wait until after the Pd-extended release.
