Conn test failing

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Ok, I've got some WEIRD problems here. My conn test (IE fping) is failing on the BBNET server itself! It's going red for no apparent reason.

Hi, Did you check with the standard ping command that runs with your OS ? Could you also check to run the fping command on your server. N F

Have you tried running fping on the BBNET server using both the hostname and the IP address ? Hobbit uses the hostname, and if that gets resolved to something other than the IP address you expect, strange things can happen. A telltale sign is if the IP address reported in the "conn" status is something other than what you would expect. Does it also fail if you login to the BBNET server and run bbcmd bbtest-net --debug --ping HOSTNAME.OF.BBNET.SERVER The debug output includes any errors that Hobbit has when trying to run fping. It also saves some fping-std* files in the ~hobbit/server/tmp/ directory - those might be interesting to look at. Regards, Henrik

I actually don't use the hostnames in my bb-hosts file. IE all machines are listed with their IP for both IP and hostname. I'll try the bbcmd debug and see what's going on. As far (to answer the other email) as running fping, yes I am able to run fping. -- Jeff Stuart Network Admin MyInternetServices 1-800-300-HOST --
