Hobbit 4.2.0 + allinone on CentOS 4.6.

I have created hosts in bb-hosts similar to the following:
10.1.24.172     den1log15               # CLASS:dblogRx conn ssh

I have added rules to hobbit-clients.cfg as follows:
HOST=%den[123]log[0-9]
        PROC    logRcvr                         CLASS=dblogRx
EXHOST=den1log09

This does not work -- the process is not monitored.
If I use a HOST= clause, regex or explicit, it does work.

Why are CLASS directives, set in the bb-hosts file, not honored?  Thanks.

Know it sounds silly, but does it work if you put the CLASS 
restriction after the EXHOST ?
