I am trying to ACK alerts using 4.1.2p1 but nothing happens, and I get
the following in the hobbitd.log

2006-03-06 11:06:10 Cookie 9679999 not found, dropping ack
2006-03-06 11:08:59 Cookie 96799 not found, dropping ack

I can see on previous mailings that version 4.0.2 had ack problems. I
assumed it was fixed by 4.1.2. My question is, I must have misconfigured
something, and was wondering what I should be looking at to fix this?
The obvious thing to check is of course the ack code. If you run
  bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdboard host=MYHOST fields=testname,cookie"
it will give you a list of the tests and their corresponding ack
code ("cookie" in Hobbit terms). So - are you using the right one?

I notice your cookies have "99" at the end. I seem to recall that
BB did something special with ack-codes that ended with 99; Hobbit
doesn't do that.
