Searching the archives, I'm seeing others have had similar lack of  luck and no published workaround...

Running Hobbit 4.2.0 with allinone patch on CentOS 4 i386...

I have been trying to get CLASS: definitions to work with  client_local and hobbit_clients configurations, with partial  success.  It works well with the client_local configurations, but  seemingly not at all with lines in hobbit_clients.cfg.

I have a host in bb-hosts defined like the following:
10.1.1.1   owl   # CLASS:test   conn ssh

I've added a definition in hobbit_clients.cfg like the following:
HOST=owl
  PROC portmap
  PROC /sbin/mingetty   CLASS=test

(This is actually an add to an existing definition as a proof of  concept).
However, the monitoring for mingetty never shows up.  Have also  tried moving the CLASS= to the HOST= line, and seems to prevent the  entry from being seen at all.

Does anyone have any experience with CLASS= working in  hobbit_clients.cfg?  It's documented to be there, but does not seem  to pick up on any of the CLASS: definitions I've tried in bb-hosts.
Thanks in advance for any advice or experiences.
