That didn't work.  Here is my bb-hosts entry...

142.78.43.171   opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca          # NOCOLUMNS:msgs,ports,files,procs ctmoratst

I made the change in bb-hosts, restarted the bb server (although not required I think) and then dropped the tests using the following commands.

 bb 127.0.0.1 "drop opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca msgs"
 bb 127.0.0.1 "drop opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca ports"
 bb 127.0.0.1 "drop opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca files"
 bb 127.0.0.1 "drop opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca procs"

They keep coming back and I'm getting scared ;-)

P.S. The ctmoratst works fine.

Try adding NOCOLUMNS:ports to the host in bb-hosts.

Hi, I'm having a problem with dropping a host's test.

I perform the following command from the server (there are no output errors or errors in the error log)...

 bb 127.0.0.1 "drop opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca ports"

Within a couple of minutes the ports column gets dropped and then a couple of minutes later the column reappears.  So the drop command works ok but the settings do not stick.

I've RTFM'd and searched the web for answers to no avail. Anyone have any ideas?

thanks
Benjamin
