Hi,

Found the problem.
First, the server is running on port 1985.
But, used the full name in bb-hosts so I didn't get a match.
After changing that all the normal hobbitclient.sh tests came through.
I though the problem was the port....

My manual test still didn't work.
The manual test fault was because the hobbitclient.cfg don't export variables and so didn't get the BBPORT setting.
Just a simple "export BBPORT=1985" made the trick.
bash-2.05$ export BBPORT=1985
bash-2.05$ ./bb --debug 192.168.34.72 test
2010-01-27 08:41:59 Transport setup is:
2010-01-27 08:41:59 bbdportnumber = 1985
2010-01-27 08:41:59 bbdispproxyhost = NONE
2010-01-27 08:41:59 bbdispproxyport = 0

2010-01-27 08:41:59 Standard BB protocol on port 1985

bash-2.05$

Malcoms test will also do the trick
bash-2.05$ ./bb --debug 192.168.34.72:1986 test
2010-01-27 08:44:10 Transport setup is:
2010-01-27 08:44:10 bbdportnumber = 1985
2010-01-27 08:44:10 bbdispproxyhost = NONE
2010-01-27 08:44:10 bbdispproxyport = 0
2010-01-27 08:44:10 Recipient listed as '192.168.34.72:1986'
2010-01-27 08:44:10 Standard BB protocol on port 1986

Currently we have a BB server running on port 1984

To test and migrate to Xymon I tried to run Xymon on port 1985

But it doesn't seem to work.



It uses default 1984 even though I specify port 1985.



bash-2.05$ bin/bb --debug 192.168.34.72 test

bash-2.05$ pwd

/usr/local/xymon/client

bash-2.05$ ls etc

clientlaunch.cfg  hobbitclient.cfg  localclient.cfg

bash-2.05$ grep 198 etc/hobbitclient.cfg

etc/hobbitclient.cfg:BBPORT="1985"                   # 

Portnumber wherehobbitd listens



Any ideas why this isn't working.

    

Try:



bin/bb --debug 192.168.34.72:1985 test
