Hi all,
when i comment an entry in my bb-hosts file, the host disappears from the display, which is normal.
i haven't done a "drop hostname" yet, and , i don't see any "unknown host" in my log files..
this brings me to the question : if someone deletes hosts in the bb-hosts file, how do i know which hosts to "drop" ?
Hi Olivier
if you run hobbitd with the option "--ghosts=log", you'll see them in the "hobbitd" colum. Here's an example :
Ghost reports: 10.50.8.10 reported host cyclopes
The man page says that :
--ghosts={allow|drop|log} How to handle status messages from unknown hosts. The
"allow" setting accepts all status messages, regardless of whether the host is known in the bb-hosts file or not. "drop"
silently ignores reports from unknown hosts. "log" works like drop, but logs the event in the hobbitd output file. The
default is "allow", unless the BBGHOSTS environment variable is set.--
