I see the errors of my ways. It had to do with my misunderstanding of client
and server when I ran the configure.client script. I was answering client
when I should have been answering server, the default.
When I noticed the 127.0.0.1 at the beginning of the tmp/msg file I realized
I had done something wrong.
Once I resolve this problem it is working great.
Thanks to all who responded.
Robert

Subject: Re: [hobbit] hobbit procs monitoring not work for me.
Is the default statement above that specific host's configuration?

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
