How about inodes ? "df -i"
It almost looks like maybe something had a lock on the file
preventing something from reading it?
No, something prevented us from creating it.
Would the new "hobbitping" work better? How do I get that?
This is before fping/hobbitping gets to run, so I don't think it will
make any difference. Still, if you want to try it out just grab the
latest snapshot and build it. Then you can copy the bbnet/hobbitping
binary to your Hobbit server/bin/ directory - make sure it is suid-root.
And change your FPING setting to point at "$BBHOME/bin/hobbitping"
