I think you are better off to hide these columns than to try to get rid
of the standard tests.  They are harmless with default settings.

	That didn't work.  Here is my bb-hosts entry...
	
	142.78.43.171   opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca          #
NOCOLUMNS:msgs,ports,files,procs ctmoratst
	
	I made the change in bb-hosts, restarted the bb server (although
not required I think) and then dropped the tests using the following
commands.
	
	 bb 127.0.0.1 "drop opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca msgs"
	 bb 127.0.0.1 "drop opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca ports"
	 bb 127.0.0.1 "drop opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca files"
	 bb 127.0.0.1 "drop opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca procs"
	
	They keep coming back and I'm getting scared ;-)

	P.S. The ctmoratst works fine.

	Try adding NOCOLUMNS:ports to the host in bb-hosts.

Hi, I'm having a problem with dropping a host's test.

I perform the following command from the server (there are no
output 
errors or errors in the error log)...

 bb 127.0.0.1 "drop opsappsl.lac-bac.gc.ca ports"

Within a couple of minutes the ports column gets dropped and
then a 
couple of minutes later the column reappears.  So the drop
command works 
ok but the settings do not stick.

I've RTFM'd and searched the web for answers to no avail.
Anyone have 
any ideas?

thanks
Benjamin
