How can I run cob_people_detection on another computer?

All I am trying to do is:

Set a computer up for roscore and an astra camera.
Set a second computer up for cob_people_detection.

I've exported the ROSMASTERURI and the ROSHOSTNAMEs on both computers. Both connected on the same network. Everything seems to be running fine with no errors. I have access on the depth and rgb images sent by the core machine, plus on the sensormessagegateway image outputs. Still, nothing shows up on the imageview when running cobpeopledetection.

Just to rule out some things: can you describe your network setup, and the values that you set for ROS_MASTER_URI and ROS_HOSTNAME? Note that when using ROS_HOSTNAME, all involved hosts must be able to resolve all other involved hosts using DNS. If that doesn't work, use ROS_IP.
