Hobbit rehashes most config files automatically, with the exception of hobbitserver.cfg When you change hobbitserver.cfg, you must restart Hobbit for it to take effect.

I understand what you are saying but after making the change in the hobbitserver.cfg file I am still getting this message on hobbit:

    In the server man pages it said that the MSGMAX_DATA defaulted to
    256kb so I
    raised it to 512kb.  So your saying that I need to raise it to
    768kb?  The

    only reason I say this is because in the error message it says:


I mentioned to raise it to 768kb only because the other MAX* variables were set to that.  In reality, you only need to raise it to whatever the largest "data/client msg" size is.  In this case, that would be 579186.

    Which says the limit is "524588" and if the MSGMAX_DATA is set to
    256 by
    default then I would think that this value is dealing with the
    MSGMAX_CLIENT
    which is defaulted to 512 and I raised it to 768.


MSGMAX_CLIENT is larger than _DATA because the former generally contains more data. Other than that, there is no need for the three MAX* settings to have any specific relationship between each other's values.
