I have added a new host to bb-hosts, and hobbit-RC6 (correctly) started 
to display a "red" conn.
I then added "noconn", and the conn test became white, but after 30 
minutes it changed to purple, is this the correct behaviour?

You need to delete the conn test from that host and leave the noconn
directive if you don't want a con test.

Removing a test from a host:

~/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "drop HOSTNAME conn"

If you don't want to have to go through this for hosts that you know
will not have a conn test, add the noconn directive when you add the
host to bb-hosts and you won't have to worry about deleting it later.

yes.  I think there is a noping statement that sends a clear every 5
minutes rather than nothing.
