Ho all,

I've a hobbit server (4.2.0) with about 100 servers. I want to update to
xymon, safely... Of course.
I've a lot of windows machines and I want to profit of the central mode.

How can I update my hobbit server ? There were some mails which talk
about, but there were no clear responses.

Regards,

Samuel

I upgraded a hobbit server by re-using the Makefile.  So unpack Xymon, copy 
the Makefile and run make && make install.
This will keep all the settings but will replace the hobbit binaries / scripts 
with the xymon versions.

I installed hobbit with a debian package, so I've no makefile :(
I don't want to wait the debian package to upgrade hobbit, but if I've no choice...

I saw in the experimental debian depository there's the 4.3.0 version.
Is someone install it?

I migrated from hobbit 4.2.0 debian package to the new source install. I installed Xymon 4.2.2 in a new directory, according to documentation, and copied over data directory and configuration files.
But I think it should be possible to install from source directly into your current hobbit directory (but make a copy of your old hobbit directory first).
