edit script - still some rough edges
list Daniel J McDonald
I've applied the latest patches, and get an error:
Can't use an undefined value as a symbol reference at /usr/lib/hobbit/server/bin/bb-hostedit.pl line 1414.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (root at localhost), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.
This is because the apache user isn't permitted to write to the /var/log/hobbit directory. There should be a test on the file open to see if it was successful rather than just bombing out. Also, when a host is deleted, do you do a bb localhost "drop deleted.host.name"? I couldn't find anything like that in my cursory perusal of the script. -- Daniel J McDonald, CCIE # 2495, CNX Austin Energy user-290ce4e24e19@xymon.invalid

Thanks. I'm currently working on v1.1, it will have the bb "drop" and "mv" commands integrated into it. I also added some more error checking for the log file writes. Regards, -Eric Schwimmer Network Engineer UVA HSCS Network Engineering
