Michael,
Take a look at this...
DNS statistics:
hostnames resolved : 302
succesful : 5
failed : 297
calls to dnsresolve : 306
Your hosts are failing to resolve. Do you have records for all of your hosts? If you're not expecting to resolve the names, then just add testip to the end of the hosts' lines.

Hello,
I have a problem with my hobbit server, when ever a ping monitored host goes down, the bbtest column goes yellow on my hobbit server. I think it is because of the ping tests taking forever… but how can I fix this?
