Until DNS gets updated/propagated you can add 'testip' to the tests for

Hello,

I have changed an IP address on one of my servers which hobbit
monitors.  I have updated the bb-hosts file to reflect the new IP
address of that host, but my hobbit server still pings the old IP
address.

If I use the bbtest-net --debug command and grep for the hostname, it
says the following:

2007-03-01 16:45:55 Got DNS result for host server1.example.com
<http://server1.example.com>; : 192.168.1.100 <http://192.168.1.100>;

This is no longer the IP address for this host, and is not reflected
that way in any of the DNS servers which the hobbit network server is
using.  Is there another configuration file that I need to modify as
well?

My Hobbit server is running on RedHat Enterprise Linux 3.0.

Thanks,

Jeff

	Thanks.  using the testip option worked.  However, I am curious
where within hobbit it is pulling the DNS information from.  Each of the
DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf resolves the IP properly and they are
authoritative for the domain.  Is there a cache which Hobbit uses first?
