Hi all,

I have two issues for MSGS. Thanks for your help.

# Environment #

  Hobbit: Hobbit 4.2.0
      OS: CentOS 4.4 (Linux 2.6.9)
Hostname: oscar (Both Hobbit server and client)

1. "ignore" clause in client-local.cfg doesn't filter out it.

I set the below in client-local.cfg on oscar, but the msgs page on  Hobbit shows the below. Why does not it filter out "br104fmx"?

== ~hobbit/server/etc/clinet-local.cfg ==
[oscar]
log:/var/log/messages:10240
ignore br104fmx

== oscar - msgs ==
No entries in /var/log/messages

2. I set the below in hobbit-clients.cfg on oscar, but Hobbit doesn't  alert it. Sent logfile is the below. Why does not Hobbit alert  "failure"? PORT and PROC have no problems.

== ~hobbit/server/etc/hobbit-clients.cfg ==
HOST=oscar
    PORT 139 "TEXT=NetBIOS: 139"
    PORT 445 "TEXT=SMB: 445"
    PORT 3303 "TEXT=MySQL: 3306"
    PORT 3690 "TEXT=Subversion: 3690"
    LOG /var/log/messages failure
    PROC nfsd
    PROC mysqld 2
    PROC smbd
    PROC svnserve

== oscar - msgs ==
No entries in /var/log/messages
