Got MRTG or something like that running on your Hobbit server, or are
you using some old BB code?  Just guessing, it looks like something is
posting a message without a server name, or possibly with a null string
in a script that SHOULD have a server name in it, and Hobbit is trying
to make the best of it.

As I said, just guessing!

I rarely get ghost messages, but isn't there a way to see what was sent
and associated with the ghost?  My memory is fuzzy on that.

Subject: [hobbit] Ghost Clients report

Hi all,

looking at "Ghost Clients" report page I have:

Hostname				Sent from		Report
age
Connected				10.28.64.54		0:49
Florence				10.28.64.54		0:49
flrwscrd9.flr.gilbarco.com	10.28.66.17		0:22
INTERNAL				10.28.64.54		0:50
Link					10.28.64.54		0:49
Outside				10.28.64.54		0:49
Tunnel				10.28.64.54		0:49
Uplink				10.28.64.54		0:49

where flrwscrd9 is the only "real ghost" client. What are all the other
entries?
Note that 10.28.64.54 is the IP address of my Hobbit server.
Any explanation/suggestion/similar situation?


Regards.
