I am using stock 4.2.0 - no patches.  That's probably where we differ =)

I am not certain but I don't believe the test needs to be (or can be)
specified.  Can you try this statement for me?

0.0.0.0 <http://0.0.0.0>; host.tld # DOWNTIME=*:0650:0700


as the man bb-hosts states:

DOWNTIME=day:starttime:endtime:cause

Though I don't believe the cause can be entered as it causes problems
for me, at least with multiple comma separated DOWNTIME statements.

   One more time ;-)

   DOWNTIME=ldap:*:0650:0700
   With this config. downtime is working as expected but the info
   column displays "ldap:*:0650:0700"

   DOWNTIME=*:ldap:0650:0700
   downtime is NOT working and hobbitd tells "Bad timespec (missing
   colon or wrong weekdays): ldap:0650:0700". Info column displays
   "ldap:All days:0650:0700"

       Dominique,

       hobbitd is saying your configuration is missing the day
       declaration, can you confirm the asterisk is in there?

          Hi Josh,

          Thanks, but no, this doesn't help.
          If I swap column and day (DOWNTIME=*:ldap:0650:0700) then it
is
          displayed correctly -with or without comment-, but hobbitd
       complains
          about:

          "Bad timespec (missing colon or wrong weekdays):
ldap:0650:0700"

              Dominique,

              I just ventured into DOWNTIME last week and found that by
              dropping the comment column the problem went away!

              Try changing it to

              DOWNTIME=ldap:*:0650:0700

                 Hi,

                 This was already reported long time ago
                       (
http://www.hobbitmon.com/hobbiton/2006/12/msg00240.html) and
              maybe
                 I missed a patch/solution to this.

                 The info column does not display the "Planned downtime"
              correctly:

                 bb-hosts
                 DOWNTIME=ldap:*:0650:0700:Regeneration

                 info column
                 Planned downtime:       ldap:*:0650:0700:Regeneration

                 The info column should display
                 Planned downtime:       ldap:All
       days:0650:0700:Regeneration
