No, I know the format of status messages...what I'm looking for is the protocol for establishing a connection to hobbit on port 1984 so that I can send status and other messages to Hobbit. I guess I could run a sniffer to find out, but I figure that its either documented somewhere, or Henrik could just let me know :)

Speaking of such, is the protocol for the bb command published anywhere? It would be handy if I could write my own function for it in perl and other languages that I am writing hobbit scripts in. I'm guessing it's not as simple as just making a tcp connection to the port and sending the command.

Hi,

Hi all,
I know I saw a thread earlier about a fully functional bb for windows and that someone had ported the hobbit bb code to windows and got it working. I, for the life of me, can not now find that thread. I'm interested in a windows bb executable so I can write a quick DOS bat file that my windows guys can run to place a windows server into maintenance mode. Anybody have a windows bb executable and/or such a script?
You can use the bbwincmd.exe utility which is installed with BBWin. It is a cmd command line utility to send messages to hobbit server almost like the original bb command and your don't need cygwin.
Regards,
