Thanks...my manual entry for the new IP in /etc/hosts is what clued me to the cause. I've now added "# testip" and removed the entry from /etc/hosts.
I'm embarrassed...I should have known better! <grin>
Later!

Check also the /etc/hosts if you're using it it could be the problem for the old ip...

We've been having issues with a terminal server and finally decided to change its IP address. I changed the IP address in bb-hosts and restarted hobbit, but my status page is still showing the terminal server as failing to ping and showing the old IP. I've tried everything...including reading the man pages. What am I missing?
Hobbit uses a DNS lookup to determine the IP address, unless you flag the host with "testip". Your DNS records are probably still pointing at the old IP.
