Hello again all, To re-visit my question about the hobbit client, I have
done the following:

- downloaded and compiled the hobbit client on a SEPERATE machine from
the hobbit server server = hercules client = castor - put an entry in
bb-hosts on the server (hercules) for the client (castor) that looks like
this: 10.10.0.6           castor # trace

- configured hobbitclient.cfg on the client to look like this:
BBDISP="10.10.0.13"             # IP address of the Hobbit server

- started the hobbit client on the client machine (castor)

I get NO client data. All I get is the tests that are originated from the
 server (conn,info,trends)


Any ideas?
Anything in Reports-->Ghost Systems?  If the client's notion of the name
to report under doesn't match bb-hosts exactly, you may find it there.  If
so, fix bb-hosts and
bb 127.0.0.1 "rename <old-bb-hosts-hostname> <client-hostname>"
