Matti,

To run the externals tests you have to use the client, the bb-client or the hobbit-client. Put the scripts in the ext folder and put the ::script.sh;300 line in the bb-bbexttab.

Then the hobbit Server will print your tests. You can run a client in the same machine your Hobbit Server is installed.

rgds, Mario.

Hello --

I recently switched from Nagios to Hobbit. So far I am MUCH happier.

My problem: I have some custom Nagios plugins that I need to port to Hobbit (scripts that test SMTP error codes under certain conditions, for example). I've searched the list archives and the manpages with no luck. Big Brother has bb-exttab, but Hobbit seems to ignore that.

Should the scripts be run directly from hobbitlaunch? Are there any guidelines for the output format they should use?

I apologize if I've missed something obvious. Thank you!

Matti
