No, The name is the same. A full restart of hobbit resolves the issue until
a new ghost comes along. Once that is added in, the same thing happens once
again until another restart is performed.

Could it be that the clients are reporting as a name different than the
name you have in the bb-hosts file?

If yes, then check out the CLIENT:  directive for the bb-hosts file. I have
had this happen to me a couple times.

Hi Henrik

Sorry to ask this directly, hopefully you can help me. I have asked this
of
the group a couple of times but have not had a suitable answer back.

I am trying to use the output received from hobbitd when issuing the bb
ghostlist command. The command reports correctly, but after modifying the
bb-hosts file, ghostlist continues to report ghosts. I need to do a full
restart of hobbit to get hobbitd reporting correctly.

I started digging through the source tonight but I have to admit that I
just
can't understand C well enough. hobbitd knows the bb-hosts file has been
updated because the host appears on the webpage, but ghostlist still
reports
it incorrectly.

Is a restart the only way to resolve this? Could I HUP a process to fix
it?

Many thanks

Phil
