I think hobbitclient-hpux.sh should be  hobbitclient-hp-ux.sh
next where is  bb-hp-memsz ?
 /usr/sbin/swapinfo  is root x only (so I chmod +x )

Also I started the client on my server  but no "extra tests" like cpu or 
disk are showning
Did I miss something to configiure?


Lastly the client IS compliling with out the pcre header, great job!

dare to install a ".0" release.

Of course, now that it has become ".1" it is perfect :-)

This should actually build on systems that have PCRE headers in a 
non-default location or use Korn shell; it will get the "disk" status 
color right; it won't flood your Hobbit server with "vmstat" processes;
and a couple of annoying crashes got fixed as well.

My apologies - this one should be a lot better.

Changes from 4.1.0 -> 4.1.1

Bugfixes:
* The Hobbit client mis-interpreted the "df" output from 
 filesystems with longer-than-usual device names (e.g.
 network-mounted filesystems, resulting in some rather
 incredible values for the disk utilisation.
* hobbitsvc.cgi could crash if some of the input parameters
 from the URL were missing. This would only happen if
 you accessed it via a URL that was not created by Hobbit.
* The hobbitlaunch.cfg file for the server was missing a line,
 causing it to run the local client much more often than
 intended.
* A faulty initialisation when reloading the Hobbit daemon state 
 could leave a broken pointer in a log-record. If this 
 was then accessed by a "hobbitdxboard" or a "drop" command,
 hobbitd would crash.

Build problems:
* The "configure" script failed on certain systems with a
 "cannot shift" error.
* Building the client on systems without the PCRE headers
 would fail.
* Building Hobbit - client or server - would fail on a 
 system if the PCRE headers were in a non-standard location.
