I have a hobbit client (AIX 5.1) attempting to send >340000 bytes of data to the hobbit server (AIX 5.2) - mainly output from ports test.
The result is the clientdata task terminates and the client rrd files are not updated.

A large client message shouldn't be causing problems. It might get truncated and thereby lose some data, but it should cause the clientdata task to stop.
If you could send me a copy of the large message (taken directly from the clients' ~hobbit/client/tmp/msg*txt file), your hobbit-clients.cfg file and the host-entry in bb-hosts, that would be very helpful.
BTW, the MAXLINE setting is for compatibility with BB extension script. If you want to bump the max. size of client messages, see the MAXMSG_CLIENT setting in the hobbitserver.cfg(5) man-page.
