Hard to tell ... my best suggestion is to capture a network trace of the traffic between one of these clients and the Hobbit server. If a Linux box, you can use tcpdump -s 1500 -w capturefile tcp port 1984 and host CLIENTHOSTIP to grab only the traffic between Hobbit and this client.
Well, I have finally found the reason...
The Quest BB Client 3.01 provides a useful "Start Monitoring After" feature. When set to something different of 0, every change made with the bbntcfg.exe control panel isn't taken into account. If I don't use the "Start Monitoring After" feature, everything is working fine.
Let's open a trouble ticket at Quest Software...
