Those are the access to the client folder, however I did not make changes to it, since I did not copy files from the original server. It is possible that the only other folder I copied was the etc/hobbit so I would not have to type the config from scratch again. All files in the etc are owned by root with access 644

There may be more permissions to fix in the client directory structure. Check /var/lib/hobbit/client.
Also, is the hobbitd_client process running?

I had a problem with xymon server (lost power while upgrading to Ubuntu9.10) and I had to re-install from scratch the OS.
That part was easy enough, but I tried to keep all the history data, and I copied the folders into the new install.
Today I realized that the folders have not been updated since I rebuilt the server because of wrong permissions, so I changed the owner to hobbit:hobbit as the other folders have, and the permission to 755.
In my Ubuntu install the files are located in
/var/lib/hobbit
The folders I did this are: hist, histlogs, hostdata, rrd.
I discover this today trying to figure out why the client is not working on the server. Fixing the permissions, fix my history reports (though I will have 36 days of no reports), but still the client information for the xymon server is not showing up, and neither are the extra scripts.
With the client information I mean CPU, Disk, memory, apt.
It looks like if the client was not reporting to the server (which should be localhost). I could not find how to check it out.
I know how to configure BBWin since most of my network computers are Windows, but don't know much about the linux client, and it has always
worked from the default install for me.
