Hi,

 
On all our Linux servers the hobbit client is installed on they aren’t
reporting msgs – now that’s fine asfar as I’m concerned but it annoys me
having the clear status on the screen – I saw a mention on using
"--ignorecolumns=msgs" in one of the hobbit server config files but this is
no good for me as I still want the windows boxes to report there msgs errors
– is there any way currently I can remove the msgs status just from the
linux servers? – if it means going around every linux box individually
that’s fine or altering the bb-host config file maybe?

 
Regards

David Richardson

If you put the Windows servers in a separate group on the same page,
they will get the msgs column and the Linux servers won't...just one
idea.

More exactly, if you separate the Windows and Unix/Linux servers, you can
use the "group-except" directive to suppress the msgs column in the UNIX
group.

Thanks,
