It shows mtime<0.  Oops... I guess I assumed this was a client patch and only 
applied it to the client.  I'll put it on the server.

Also, I'm prefectly OK with the possiblity that this is a documentation issue.  
If the functionality doesn't match the documentation, it's always easier to 
change the doc.  :)

OK, I have the patch applied, and I'm trying to get a handle on the
semantics of the descriptions for mtime.

I have the following in hobbit-clients.cfg:

HOST=conn2
        FILE    /vsamredir/VSAMRedirectorServer.properties mtime<600 red

According to the data returned to the Hobbit server, here are the file
properties:

type:100000 (file)
mode:755 (-rwxr-xr-x)
linkcount:1
owner:500 (rks0)
group:100 (users)
size:0
clock:1148474042 (2006/05/24-07:34:02)
atime:1148470137 (2006/05/24-06:28:57)
ctime:1093026283 (2004/08/20-13:24:43)
mtime:1093026283 (2004/08/20-13:24:43)

The description of mtime is as follows:

to check if a file was updated within the past 10 minutes (600 seconds):
mtime<600.

The file was not updated within the past 10 minutes, so I would expect to
see green.  Here is the information from the page:

red /vsamredir/VSAMRedirectorServer.properties
File was modified 55447759 seconds ago - should be <0
Assuming your host is called 'conn2' and you have this in client-local.cfg:

[conn2]
file:/vsamredir/VSAMRedirectorServer.properties

I would be guess, the patch did not take since your last line should read:

File was modified 55447759 seconds ago - should be <600

^---------------------
Try this to see how your config parses (from ~/server):

# bin/bbcmd --env=etc/hobbitserver.cfg hobbitd_client --dump-config|grep
conn2
