Hi,

I did a clean install with the patch and everything looks good so far.  I've
even been able to use BBConfigure with to generate the hosts file.  Nice.

A question about enabling and disabling.  The form requires the input of the
username and reason for disabling a monitor.  This is a good idea for
tracking.  However, I don't see where this information is displayed
anywhere.  Am I missing something?

I asked that very question some time ago...never got a reply :-)

When using bb+maint.pl, when you disable a host you get the blue dot, and if you click on the dot you see why it was disabled, by who, and for how long, example:
=====


      blue Fri Jan 7 15:00:00 2005 OFFLINE UNTIL Fri Dec 1 15:00:00 2006

997920 minutes (99 weeks)
Disabled by: cjones at x.x.x.x
Reason: Indefinitely offline
=====

I notice that when you disable a host with hobbit, if you click the blue dot it does not have that info, and just has basically the last status received.

Is there a configuration option to have the disabled info similar to bb+maint.pl ?

Thanks,
