Am I missing something?
The rootlogin.pl is not working .

Here is the log

PID 20669, cause Bad file number
2007-01-29 12:53:49 Our child has failed and will not talk to us: Channel
client, PID 20669, cause Bad file number
2007-01-29 12:54:04 Our child has failed and will not talk to us: Channel

Thanks
Richard

How would I go about writing a who script that would tell me when
someone is
logged in as root?
For someone familiar with Perl, I think it should be fairly
straight-forward.
I'm not familiar with Perl at all, but a couple of hours work produced
this, which appears to work fine. I'll include it as a sample of how to
hook into the Hobbit server-side channels.

To use it, put it in your ~hobbit/server/ext/ directory, and add this to
your hobbitlaunch.cfg on your server:

[rootlogin]
	ENVFILE /usr/lib/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
	NEEDS hobbitd
	CMD hobbitd_channel --channel=client
--log=$BBSERVERLOGS/rootlogin.log $BBHOME/ext/rootlogin.pl
