After a little snooping in the BBWin V.12 svn I noticed that there is a
"filesystem" agent and that 

	<load name="filesystem" value="filesystem.dll"/>

invokes this agent in BBWin.cfg.

Once I added this line BBWin file started working and my hobbit server
started monitoring the file.

I have this enabled on BBWin 0.12 and file monitoring still isn't working.  Would you mind posting or emailing your bbwin.cfg and the relevant snips of hobbit-client.cfg and client-local.cfg?

Thanks much

Snipit from BBWin.cfg on the BBWin client.

	<load name="disk" value="disk.dll"/>
	<load name="externals" value="externals.dll"/>
	<load name="filesystem" value="filesystem.dll"/> 
	<load name="memory" value="memory.dll"/>

Snipit from Hobbit server files:

	1) client-local.cfg 

		***mailrelay is my BBWin client. The entry below needs to be
inserted 	before the [win32] section. See a previous email about
this***
	
		[mailrelay.math.purdue.edu]
		file:c:\Alligate\Digests\(user-0fe9b25bd89e@xymon.invalid).txt

	2) hobbit-clients.cfg snipit

		HOST=mailrelay.math.purdue.edu
    		UP 30m 1w
    		LOAD 40.0 70.0
    		DISK * 90 95
    		FILE c:\Alligate\Digests\(user-0fe9b25bd89e@xymon.invalid).txt red
MTIME<86400
    		PROC AGDigestSvc.exe  1 1
    		PROC AgDomSvc.exe  1 1

If you look on the BBWin client in BBWin/tmp you should see the file
clientlocal.cfg which should contail the FILE line.

Hope this helps.

Ok, I found the problem.  There was a rouge [win32] entry up at the top of client-local.cfg.  By default, client-local.cfg has that entry and it was never removed after setting it up.  Hobbit must use the first class or host entry it reaches.

After removing this entry (or explicitly defining a host), everything is working fine.  Thanks for your help.
