I have been seeing several patches floating around for 4.02 and am not
sure of the order of application.   What order are they applied in and
are they all located off the demo site?
There are 3 patches available from the "Demo Site -> Downloads"
directory:

hobbit-4.0.2-acknowledge.patch : Patch for the broken acknowledgment
handling in Hobbit 4.0.2 (ack's are not working)

hobbit-4.0.2-setup.patch : Patch for a filedescriptor leak during 
the "make install" process. If you installed Hobbit successfully, you
do not need this one.

hobbit-4.0.2-alertscript.patch : Patch for the HTML link to the status
not being included in the default alert message for scripts.

You can install these in any order, I think. The only critical one is
the first.


Finally, there is a patch around that replaces the perl-based
enable/disable script (maint.pl) with a native Hobbit tool. This is
somewhat more "experimental" since it hasn't really had much testing,
although I do plan on deploying it to my production system later
today. Apply this last - You'll find it at
