Thanks to John for pointing out that the bug was in my eyes.
Solution was to be sure that the DEFAULT section of the hobbit-client.cfg has to be at the end of the file.
I have look at the documentation may time and I had never seen the lines that DEFAULT has to be at the end.

You should have DEFAULT section last. HOST entries should be defined before DEFAULT.
There is a comment in the hobbit-clients.cfg.
The special DEFAULT section can modify the built-in defaults - this must
be placed at the end of the file.

I have finally resolved this problem. In my hobbit-client.cfg file I had a DEFAULT entry which had a LOAD entry. The default entry was at the beginning of the file and all my hosts below.
It seems that bbwin.c was getting the LOAD values of the DEFAULT and not the LOAD value for the host. Since the call to get the LOAD values is a standard hobbit subroutine call I assume that this is not a bbwin.c problem but a hobbit problem. Once I commented out the entries in the DEFAULT things started working fine.
So either there is a bug in how hobbit scans hobbit-client.cfg or the DEFAULT is not working as I would have thought.
QUESTIONS: How does hobbit scan the hobbit-client.cfg file and how does it handle entries in the DEFAULT group.
To resolve I went to bbwin.c and added the following lines so that I could print the load, loadyellow and loadread values to see the values they were being used.
sprintf(msgline, "load: %f, loadyellow: %f, loadred: %f\n", load1, loadyellow, loadred); addtobuffer(cpumsg, msgline);
I find having the load, loadyellow and loadred values printed on the web page is kind of nice since these values can change with different hosts it is nice to see the values that is causing the alarm.

Hello Robert,
2008/4/10, McGraw, Robert P <rmcgraw at purdue.edu>:
Running BBWin on Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition
Service
Pack 2 (build 3790)
Running Hobbit 4.2.0 on the server
BBWin is running in central mode
The following is from the cpu bbdisplay
Thu Apr 10 15:22:48 2008 up: 0 days, 0 users, 58 procs, load=6% yellow Load is HIGH CPU states: total 06% cpu00 5.7% cpu01 4.3% cpu02 4.9% cpu03 6.0%
This is my hobbit-client.cfg
HOST=mailrelay.math.purdue.edu UP 30m LOAD 40 70 DISK * 90 95 PROC AGDigestSvc.exe 1 1 PROC AgDomSvc.exe 1 1
Can someone tell me what I am getting the yellow condition for the LOAD? I thought the LOAD values were in percentages
Sorry for the delay. Are you sure HOST=mailrelay.math.purdue.edu really match your host ? Could you check in the procs column if the specified procs rules are applied ?
I have about 15 rules and they are working like a champ.

Could you tell me what bbwin patch did you apply on your hobbit 4.2 sources ? I mean, was it before or after January 31th ?
I just installed BBWin within the last couple weeks and followed the instruction from your web page.
Tue Apr 15 10:16:17 2008 up: 4 days, 0 users, 57 procs, load=28% red Load is CRITICAL CPU states: total 28% cpu00 8.0% cpu01 13.5% cpu02 17.0% cpu03 70.6%
