Hello,

This is an old subject but I ran into the same issue and was frustrated to see there is no place where I could find the answer...I finally sorted that problem out but it took me a couple of hours to discover the origin of the problem.

I have two hobbit servers, one is running 4.01 the other 4.02. The 4.01 server has columns for the hobbit server named bbgen bbtest and hobbitd that the 4.02 machine does not list for itself. It does have a bbd column which is not listed on the 4.01 server for itself.

Could you check "hobbitd.log" and see if you don't find any message like this one :

2005-07-01 15:15:43 hobbitd servername MACHINE='localhost' not listed in bb-hosts, dropping hobbitd status

It looks like hobbitd status are dropped if your server name is not listed in bb-hosts. I think the name comes from BBSERVERHOSTNAME variable of "hobbitserver.cfg".

So you have to either change your bb-hosts so that "localhost" is listed, either change variable BBSERVERHOSTNAME to reflect what's in your current bb-hosts.

Hope this helps.
