It is in the 4.2.2 release but patching instructions are available on
the BBWin website.  It is very simple...

cd hobbit*
Wget patch
patch -p0 bbwin_*patch

I have 4.2.2 installed (yesterday download off of sourceforge..

Its not working in central mode but it is working if the client has all the
dll files included and all the different monitoring attributes set in its
config file...

Do you have the configuration on the bbwin client for centralization mode?

I don't have a Windows machine to confirm this but I'm guessing these two
lines are right and what make it work:

<setting name="bbdisplay" value="X.X.X.X" />
...
 <setting name="mode" value="central" />

There are the only two that relate to central i think..

I may not have bbwin client installed but I'm pretty sure even that client
needs a bbdisplay specified =)

First thing to check is if the data from the Windows client
makes it to the Hobbit server at all. If you look at the "conn"
status, does it have a "Client data available" link just above the
ping-time graph ? If not, then your Hobbit client data is not
reaching the Hobbit server - in that case you should check
if the Windows box is listed in the "Ghost clients" report
(it could be using a different hostname), or if there's a
firewall blocking traffic on port 1984 between the Hobbit 
server and your Windows box (from the Windows box, try to
run a "telnet X.X.X.X 1984" from a command prompt).
