Great!
./bin/bbcmd ./bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "disable Kancharla-nullbox.imaginenetx.com.*-1"
This worked perfectly while I was in /home/shire/server - I didn't know that bbcmd was an environmental setting script!
Now the biggest concern I have is being able to enable/disable via the web interface. I just tried, what I believe, the exact same attempt a second time on the web interface and it seems to have disabled it as expected. I'll come back to this if any problems arise again.
Thank you very much for your help!

I also tried doing this command and got some odd errors:
[shire at frodo bin]$ /home/shire/server/bin/bbcmd 127.0.0.1 "disable host.mydomain.com 15" 2007-10-04 20:42:07 Using default environment file /home/shire/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg 2007-10-04 20:42:07 execvp() failed: No such file or directory
bbcmd is used to set the environment for other hobbit commands, so it must be followed by a command. Here, it tries to find the '127.0.0.1' command or executable which, I'm guessing, you don't have ;)
[shire at frodo bin]$ /home/shire/server/bin/bbcmd bin/bb 127.0.0.1"disable Kancharla-nullbox.imaginenetx.com -1" 2007-10-04 20:45:13 Using default environment file /home/shire/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg 2007-10-04 20:45:13 execvp() failed: No such file or directory
Almost right: don't specify the bin/ directory.
I'm guessing your host is named Kancharla-nullbox.imaginenetx.com. The syntax for the disable option of bb is:
bb <hobbitserver> "disable HOST.TEST DURATION [text]"
you have to replace the dots in your hostname with commas, so the rigth command would become:
/home/shire/server/bin/bbcmd bb 127.0.0.1 "disable Kancharla-nullbox,imaginenetx,com.* -1"
This will disable all the tests related to the host until OK.
See also the manpage for the bb-command.
HTH, Paul
