I installed Hobbit on my (former) BB server. The clients are reporting in normally. However, I have some tests for hosts (NetApp, Tandem - that have no BB client) that run on the BB server and use the bb executable to "trick" the server into thinking it received it from an external client. For example:
exec("/opt/bb/bin/bb", $IP, "status $machine.$test $color $now\n $status\n @array\n ") or die( "$1: Couldn't execute BB");
Is there an equivalent function on the Hobbit server that can accomplish this without having both BB and Hobbit installed?
Hobbit comes with a "bb" binary that acts just like the Big Brother one. So your script should work just fine, although you may need to change that hard-coded path to /opt/bb/bin/bb (or setup links).
