BBWin 0.11 Centralised Config problems

You should use [win32] instead of   [dcstest2] in your

client-local.cfg because in your bbwin.cfg, the configclass is set to
win32 (<setting name="configclass" value="win32" />). Once you will do
that, BBWin, will get the rules you have set to ignore some events.

Does this mean that you cannot have a client entry in client-local.cfg or
can we change the configclass in bbwin.cfg?

Also the `COMMAND` config parameter in client-local.cfg don't appear to
work. I have the following entry in my client-local.cfg

file:`C:\listing.cmd`

The listing.cmd file contains the following entry
dir "C:\CFusionMX\Mail\Spool"

hobbit-client.cfg contains
FILE %C:\CFusionMX\Mail\Spool\.* MTIME>600 COLOR=red TRACK

But all i get is a No Files Checked in the status window

thanks
Nick

Hi Matthew,

 Hi All,

 I need a bit of assistance in setting up BBWin0.11 with Hobbit 4.3 in
 Centralised config mode.

 My problem lies with the eventlog monitoring of my Windows hosts. When
running
 BBWin in local config mode, I can setup filtering so that only specific
event
 log types get sent to the hobbit server and displayed on the msgs page.

However

 when I configure BBWin to use a central config, I cant filter which
event logs
 get sent to the hobbit server and displayed on the msgs page. As a
result my
 msgs page is full of eventlog entries which I dont need to know about.

 Below is a copy of my BBWin.cfg and the client-local.cfg on the hobbit
server

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
 <configuration>
 <bbwin>

...

      <!-- bbwin mode local or central -->
      <setting name="mode" value="central" />
      <setting name="configclass" value="win32" />

...

      <setting name="logreportfailure" value="false" />
 </bbwin>


 client-local.cfg: (dcstest2 is the name of one of my hosts I am having
problems
 with)

 [dcstest2]
 eventlog:security
 ignore Success
 eventlog:application
 ignore information
 eventlog:system
 ignore information

You should use [win32] instead of   [dcstest2] in your
client-local.cfg because in your bbwin.cfg, the configclass is set to
win32 (<setting name="configclass" value="win32" />). Once you will do
