[hobbit] Port check from server

Is it possible to test a TCP port on a remote machine with the Hobbit server? I have some applications that can't be tested with anything standard (HTTP, SMTP, etc). I'm just looking for a basic acknowledgement that the TCP port is listening on the host being monitored.

Thanks, Josh You could do it at least two ways:

1. Have hobbit client on the remote machine check for the listening port in netstat
2. Define the port in bb-services.cfg and add the tag for the new service to your bb-hosts.
