Distcc wants to drop down it's privs (it doesn't like runnig as root). And
seeming that you are trying to bind distcc to a priviledged port, no wonder
it won't listen. Best is to create a locked distcc user without a shell that
can't log in. Then just run distccd, and edit the distcc hosts file so you
can distribute complies across machines. Don't forget to use -j flags with
make.
To see if distccd is doing compile jobs, you can always attach a strace(1) (or
maybe even truss) to it's pid and watch if it's doing someting.
