[hobbit] Oversize data/client msg

You need to stop the hobbit server, use the ipcs -m command to check the shared memory has been released and then restart the hobbit server and the problem should be resolved.

change alert email text?

Hello, Sorry if this is horribly ignorant. I'm rather new to the whole network administration biz. I've got alerts functioning nicely, but I'd like to change the text of the email that's sent out. Is there a cfg file somewhere I'm missing that I could edit? Thank you, -Scott

trouble with SCRIPT directive
by khanrahan＠charter.net 07 Jan '08

07 Jan '08

Hi all, This might seem long winded but I wanted to describe the problem in detail and see if anyone could help please. I am trying to make use of the SCRIPT function in hobbit-alerts.cfg I am trying to send snmp traps from hobbit to another receiver using a utility called trapgen and I think the syntax of SCRIPT and trapgen are getting in each others way. SCRIPT seems to have this syntax: SCRIPT <program> <recipient> <options> And trapgen has this syntax: trapgen -d destination <options> So, when I try to assemble it, it has this form: SCRIPT /home/hobbit/server/ext/trapgen -d 10.10.0.13 <options> I get an error in the page.log that says trapgen needs at least a destination specified as: trapgen -d IPADDRESS ..but it DOES have a destination!!! It seems that the SCRIPT directive is intercepting the "-d IPADDRESS" and interpreting it as it's own "recipient" directive.?? Is there a way around this? Is there a way to ignore the "recipient" directive using SCRIPT? Thanks for any ideas KEvin

[hobbit] 4.3 4release
by bewhite＠fellowes.com 06 Jan '08

Josh, Sorry, I was under the impression this forum was for asking question about hobbit and that was my question. I have posted the question exactly twice. He never responded to the first and thought maybe he didn't see it. My question was posted months after the topic first arose here with lots of people asking the same question. In fact, if you check there is a long thread on this topic which also contains people posting additions they want to see in the new release. I'm sorry I offended Henrik - If you have felt badgered, my sincere apology. I have the greatest respect for you and want you have accomplished. Hobbit has been a remarkable and invaluable tool. -----Original Message----- From: Josh Luthman [mailto:josh at imaginenetworksllc.com] Sent: Saturday, December 29, 2007 5:28 PM To: hobbit at hswn.dk Subject: Re: [hobbit] 4.3 4release Honestly I believe asking when the release of 4.3 is going to be is bothering all of the regulars. The question does nothing but this and more then likely delay the release date. Let Henrik do what he does well and be patient please.
