I have the hobbit client already running. Here are the current processes running on the client machine.

hobbit 5724 5723 0 15:44 ? 00:00:00 vmstat 300 2
And I have the following lines in the hobbitclient.cfg file on the client.

I have setup a hobbit server (on Ubuntu) and for test purpose installed
hobbit client on a Ubuntu machine. I updated the bb-hosts file on the
server with the client IP address and hostname. But the only status I get
for this client is conn, info, and trends. Which files do I need to update
or edit to get rest of the status displayed on the Hobbit main page?
You also need to tun the hobbit client on the ubuntu machine. And point the
BBDISP in hobbitclient.cfg to the hobbit server.
