Have you tried running fping on the BBNET server using both the hostname

to something other than the IP address you expect, strange things can
happen.
A telltale sign is if the IP address reported in the "conn" status is
something other than what you would expect.
Does it also fail if you login to the BBNET server and run
bbcmd bbtest-net --debug --ping HOSTNAME.OF.BBNET.SERVER
The debug output includes any errors that Hobbit has when trying to run
fping. It also saves some fping-std* files in the
~hobbit/server/tmp/ directory - those might be interesting
to look at.

I actually don't use the hostnames in my bb-hosts file. IE all machines are listed with their IP for both IP and hostname.
I'll try the bbcmd debug and see what's going on.
As far (to answer the other email) as running fping, yes I am able to run fping.
