Hi Henrik,

"noping" isnt mentioned in bb-hosts.
network tests are running, as hobbit is able to monitor the other services.

Does fping use a specific port? Is fping triggered by another program which
uses a specific port?

Are there any other things i could check from the server to ensure the conn
entry comes green or red other than a '-'

Regards,
Sanu

However, I do not get to see a green for "conn", all i see is a '-'.
Then you have a "noping" on these lines in bb-hosts, or you're not running
any network tests at all (rather unlikely, I think).
