The default for hobbit seems to be that if the conn test fails,

On a per-test basis: Put a tilde "~" in front of the testname, e.g.   10.0.0.1 myhost # ~ftp ~cont;http://myhost/;Welcome

On a per-host basis: Add the "noclear" tag on the host entry, e.g.
  10.0.0.1 myhost # noclear ftp cont;http://myhost/;Welcome

For a group of hosts: Put the noclear tag on a ".default." entry, e.g:
  0.0.0.0  .default. # noclear
  10.0.0.2 myhost1 # cont;http://myhost/;Welcome
  10.0.0.2 myhost2 # cont;http://myhost/;Welcome
  0.0.0.0  .default. #

Cool I didnt know about that I just thought the only option was to set the IPTEST_2_CLEAR_ON_FAILED_CONN in the server.cfg to false but then thats obviously a global change.
