I have had problems with the placement of thing in the .cfg files.
Try moving the lines to the very top of the before anything else. This will let you know if any of the other entries are causing problem.
At one time I had an empty class name before a hostname of the same class and nothing worked. When I moved the host name above all the class names it started working.

Hi,
I'm running Hobbit 4.2.0 with the allinone patch on hpux and can't get the FILE monitor to work. I've added the required file: entry in the client-local.cfg for the host, then put the FILE directive in the hobbit-clients.cfg file. After adding the monitor, the BBDISPLAY picks up the new file and shows it as 'green'. When testing the monitor by changing the mtime of my file, hobbit doesn't alert on the change.
Here's my hobbit-client.cfg entry:
CLASS=classname
FILE /etc/sudoers yellow mtime<600
The client-local.cfg entry:
[classname]
file:/etc/sudoers
Has anyone else seen this before or have any advice on how to troubleshoot?
Thanks,
Denver Osborn
