Ok, after some trial and error, I figured this out. Hobbit will only get
the full message from the client if you are using FQDN in bb-hosts and
have the check box on the client checked.
Now is there a way to change the http link that is sent out in the
message? My server uses https rather than http.

So where would I look to see what message is being logged by the client?
It appears this is not being sent to sendmail?

Thinking about it I am using the Windows BB client too! It is
on one server that I normally just cuss and disable the tests for, but
it is reporting =)

I don't think hobbit plays well with the BB windows
client (I don't recal where I saw this). Have you tried putting BBWin
on one of the servers to see if that gives you any output?

Can you share your ~/server/etc/hobbit-alerts.cfg
please?

Subject: Hobbit Emails empty
I have a test Hobbit server running on CentOS 5.0 I am
running Hobbit 4.1.2p2 and everything appears to be fuinctioning correct
except alerting. When I trigger an alert, I get an email with only a
subject and no body. I expected to get some information about the alert
and the link to the monitored device. I am sure I am missing something
fairly simple but I am new to Linux and Hobbit.
Any Ideas?
