Robert,I'm not sure this will make any difference at all on your PROC
problem, but assuming your DISK line means "all disks" you might need a %
before the *. Or you might just want to take the DISK line out since 90/95
is the default for all disks unless told otherwise.

This is my first linux hobbit configuration and for the most part things
seem to be working ok.

One problem that I am having is that "procs" does not seem to be
monitoring
my list of PROCS listed in hobbit-client.cfg. Below is the Linux host that
is listed in hobbit-client.cfg.

HOST=hostx.math.purdue.edu
       UP 30m
       LOAD 6.0 10.0
       DISK    * 90 95
       PROC in.telnetd 0 0
       PROC dhcpd 1 1
       PROC sendmail 0 0
       PROC sshd 1 -1
       PROC syslogd  1 1

If I click on the "procs" icon for hostx I do get the ps listing as
follows
and I also get "Process NOT ok".

Since I seem to be getting the ps I assume that the server is getting the
necessary data to monitor the listed PROCS.

Any ideas why the monitoring is not working? Any suggestions on how I can
track down the problem?

Thanks
