Couple questions on hobbit functionality

I have a few questions on the how much I can tweak the configs.

For example:

[bbretest]
         ENVFILE /usr/home/lee/Hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
         NEEDS hobbitd
         CMD $BBHOME/ext/bbretest-net.sh
         LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-retest.log
         INTERVAL 1m


Can I make the Interval <1m like 10seconds 10s?


Also, I want to test services through a ssh tunnel.
Can I have bb-hosts file to test ssh on localhost port 2222?

127.0.0.1 foo.bar.com    # BBDISPLAY
127.0.0.1 remote.machine.com # ssh:2222

Something like that?

Thanks,

Lee

If you just write a number (no "s"), it will be treated as 
seconds. I believe there's a built-in limit of minimum 
5 seconds before two successive runs of the same taks.

Yep, just like that.


Oh - and both settings are described in the man-pages ...
