Hi,

Here is my problem : I have configured several hobbit clients located in
DMZ, all works very well but any information are displayed on the Hobbit web
interface.
I have already two others servers in this configuration and they both work
very well :
http://www.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2008/02/msg00067.html
but not this one : *strange*


Check my all configuration :

CLIENT SIDE :

*Configure.client*

This script asks a few questions and builds a Makefile to compile Xymon
Checking your make-utility
Xymon normally keeps all of the client configuration files
on the Xymon server. If you prefer, it is possible to use
a local client configuration file instead - if so, answer
'client' to the next question.
NB: Local configuration requires the PCRE libs on each host.
Server side client configuration, or client side [server] ?
client
Checking for the PCRE libraries
Checking for PCRE ...
Found PCRE include files in /usr/include
Found PCRE libraries in /usr/lib
Checking for Large File Support ...
Large File Support OK
What userid will be running Xymon [xymon] ?
hobbit
Found passwd entry for user hobbit:x:123675:1003::/home/hobbit:/bin/bash
Where do you want the Xymon installation [/home/hobbit] ?
/opt/hobbit-monitor
WARNING: /opt/hobbit-monitor does not exist.
What is the IP-address of your Xymon server [127.0.0.1] ?
** NOTE: Using 127.0.0.1 (loopback), but it is probably not what you want

*hobbitclient.cfg

BBDISP="127.0.0.1"             # IP address of the Hobbit server

This would be your problem, I think.  If this really is a client, it needs
to have the address of the hobbit/xymon server in BBDISP.  What you've got
is 'localhost' - you've told the client installation to talk to itself, not
to the server...
