Hi Henrik,

I have placed this line in my client and server (two different machines)
after upgrading, and it's still generating alerts for this. Am I doing
something wrong?

There's a patch for this now at
http://www.hswn.dk/hobbitsw/betapatches/ignoredisk.patch

This lets you put a 

    DISK %^/mnt IGNORE

in the hobbit-clients.cfg, and it will completely ignore all filesystems
beginning with "/mnt".


Regards,
Henrik

An ignore setting would be good for ignoring CD/DVD/USB/etc. mounts as
well.

Erm, how do you exempt disks from being detected in the client? Its
detected the network mount (a backup drive) as a disk and is
logging it!
I don't think I need that level of redundancy in detection. *smirk*
Perhaps I should add an "ignore" setting to the DISK setup in 
hobbit-clients.cfg.
