really like an alert to fire if certain IP addresses _become_

scripting?bb-hosts man page says:
conn The "conn" test (which does a ping of the host) is enabled for all
hosts by default, and normally you just want to disable it using
"noconn" or "noping". However, on the rare occasion where you may
want to check that a host is NOT up, you can specify it as an
explicit test, and use the normal test modifiers, e.g. "!conn" will
be green when the host is NOT up, and red if it does appear on the
network.
Thanks.... selective blindness on my part I guess :)
