Is it safe to compile it and replace the=20 old Hobbit binaries? or is there any cleanest way to upgrade=20 my current=20 Hobbit server? =20 Should work just fine, as long as you configure it the same as you did with the original 4.2.0 sources - same userid,=20 directories etc.
Could I compile the binaries and simply copy them directly in to the correct bin/ directories so as to use my current 4.2.0 configs or are there major changes to the config files?
The only config file changes are additions to the hobbitgraph.cfg file (new definitions from BBWin, Devmon and hobbit-perl-client), and the corresponding new items listed in the TEST2RRD and GRAPHS setting in hobbitserver.cfg.
So compiling and then copying your binaries over - or just doing a "make install", this will not overwrite your existing config - should work fine.
