OK I figured it out. It works differently from hobbit 4.2. In hobbit 4.2 it would put the comment as an actual set of characters on the page as in:
Server_name (comment)
But in Xymon, it shows up as a "text box", if you hold the cursor over the server name. The new html generated by bbgen creates these COMMENT fields in the html as:
<span title="comment"> Server_name </span>
So you no longer see them all the time on the web page. The bb-hosts documentation appears to need an update because it says:
COMMENT:Host comment
Adds a small text after the hostname on the webpage.

I have it not working on two different RedHat ES 5.2 servers. I compiled and installed following the install doc.

Not sure what you mean? I installed the source and did the installation.
