I've swapped the IP Address of the machines (so that all of the clients do not have to be touched), rebooted and verified that the Hobbit machine is in fact the new address.

Sun Oct 23 10:33:00 2005 conn NOT ok

Service conn on hobbit1 is not OK : Host does not respond to ping

System unreachable for 13 poll periods (3623 seconds)

red 172.17.0.13 is unreachable

172.17.0.13 is the old address, the new address is 172.17.1.50. In bb-hosts I have:

172.17.1.50 hobbit1 # BBDISPLAY BBPAGER BBNET bbd http://hobbit1/

Hobbit does a name loookup by default (DNS and the local hosts file). Perhaps it picks up the old IP address from /etc/hosts ?
