Is there a limit of how long you can ACK an alert?...a max accepted value
for that field?

No. The CGI script uses a form that has a max-size of 4 digits, but
that's just in the user interface.

Hi,
 I have been working with Hobbit for a few months now and think it has some
great enhancements to big brother. I was wondering with the acknowlegements
of alerts if there was a way to tell who acknowledged the alert? I checked
the mail archives and documentation but wasn't able to find anything.
 Thanks,
billie

Hobbit doesn't currently have unique acknowledge codes for each person
who receives an alert. So the only way currently is to make access to
the ack-webpage dependant on a login (implemented by your webserver);
then the login-name will appear on the acknowledge.

If you select the "secure" webserver setup during Hobbit configuration,
that should be the default setup.

Henrik
