I guess the problem that I have is that my users have gotten use to
seeing a netstat and vmstat column [...] Is there a way to get this data
to show up as a separate column like I had with the big brother client
so my users don't get confused????
Not directly. You could hack up a script to generate a netstat column;
something like
#!/bin/sh

cd $BBVAR/rrd
for H in */netstat.rrd
do
   HOSTNAME=`echo $H | cut -d/ -f1`
   $BB $BBDISP "status+25h $HOSTNAME.netstat green

   &lt;a href=\"$CGIBINURL/bb-hostsvc.sh?CLIENT=$HOSTNAME&section=netstat\">Current data&lt;/a>
   "
done

exit 0
and run this as a server-side extension from hobbitlaunch.cfg
once a day (set "INTERVAL 24h"). It should pick up the netstat graph
automatically, since the column- and graph-names match.
The link inside the status message is for easy access to the current
data.
A vmstat column can be done in the same way.
