I tried both of the options you suggested and they do not work for me.  I listed the contents of my configuration files in my previous post on this subject (listed again here).  Both of these changes are in place but neither of them is having an effect.

Does this work for you?  I'm using 4.2.

Hi, I'm having a problem with dropping a host's test.

I perform the following command from the server (there are no output errors or errors in the error log)...

 bb 127.0.0.1 "drop opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca ports"

Within a couple of minutes the ports column gets dropped and then a couple of minutes later the column reappears.  So the drop command works ok but the settings do not stick.
The "ports" column re-appears because it is one of the columns generated
from the client data. So after you drop it, it will be re-created the
next time the client sends in an update.

If you want to remove the "ports" column because it is clear (white),
then use the "NOCOLUMNS:ports" setting in bb-hosts, or change
hobbitserver.cfg so hobbitd_client is launched with the --no-clear-ports
option.
