Need help on telnet fine tune in bb-services
by tj_yang＠hotmail.com 03 Jul '07

03 Jul '07

I have 3 login servers(login1-3), login1 is in trouble (taking long long time to see the prompt and then failed) The current configuration in bb-services for telnet monitoring is like following, [telnet] options banner,telnet port 23 Above configuration will make all three servesr show up as green because telnetd answer the poll. I am looking for better configuration option to fail the login1 testing since it is failing the telnet service to telnet clients. Also both login2 and login3 are normal but only on login3's telnet hb page, I see the full login banner. On login2, I only see the OS version number(1st line of banner ?), why the difference ? R1: bb-services manpage, T.J.

client-local.cfg not propagating
by rpeters＠columbia.com 02 Jul '07

02 Jul '07

Hello all, I have a client that isn't receiving the client-local.cfg information. The 'files' and 'msgs' categories are reported as 'clear' since there is no data on which to base a status. I've re-installed the client, uninstalled and copied the directory from a working client, and re-installed a working client to validate that it isn't a server issue. What would cause a client to NOT download this configuration? Any thoughts? Thanks

Depends tag in bb-hosts and displayed result behind "info" icon?
by dortsen＠gmail.com 02 Jul '07

Hi All, When I specify a dependency in the bb-hosts file, is there some place where I can verify that the depends tag is correctly interpreted? An alert as specified in hobbit-alerts.cfg shows a table in the webpage (when you click in the info icon) for that specific host when an alert is sent to whom. Is there something similar visible for the depends tag? Or is there really no other option then finding out whether I made no typos when something really happens? Thanks in advance, Dennis

Contribution -> Server-side login/generic script - Bash Version
by giovanni＠redix.com.br 02 Jul '07

Hi everyone! Attached follows a "login"/generic server-side script made on bash shell-script language. This script is just like the perl version, just made in a generic way to be easily extensible... I made this version because i couldn't get the perl version to work on my Gentoo server with perl 5.8.8, not to mention that i know perl as much as i know how to build nuclear submarines ;-) With best regards, -- Giovanni M. Frainer
