proxy problems?

This is everything from hobbitlaunch.cfg on the proxy (minus comments)

So, you pretty much have everything enabled.

[...]

[bbdisplay]
        ENVFILE /usr/local/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
        GROUP generators
        CMD bbgen $BBGENOPTS --report --nopropyellow=msgs,uptime
        LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-display.log
        INTERVAL 1m

Depending on the values in hobbitserver.cfg (I think BBSERVERIP but I haven't 
confirmed), this may be generating the traffic.

Do you really need the html pages to be available on this "proxy" server?

Hi All,


I got the proxy set-up between our site here and in Newbury but at

4:30

last night I got a call saying we were using a high level of

bandwidth,

the network team investigated and found hobbit to be using 50% of our
2mb connection, is this normal? How can I run tests etc. to see how

the

proxy is working and are there any settings I might alter to make it

use

less bandwidth?

Please explain how you have set up your proxy.

For instance, in your scenario, I would expect that the *only* things
running
(not marked as DISABLED in hobbitlaunch.cfg) on your "proxy" are the
bbproxy
and bbnet tasks.

Regards,
Buchan
