Hi,

I think I have an issue with 4.2.3 where the hobbit.sh is not stopping the server correctly. Running "./hobbit.sh stop" doesn't stop all the hobbit processes

Which processes remain? A vmstat running as the hobbit / xymon user?

and so I can't install this as a service currently. Could anyone help me to debug why this is happening? I'm not really sure where to go from here.

It's a bit difficult with no information. A stray vmstat process after stopping xymon is expected, and using the example init scripts provided in the debian or rpm directories works on many distros ...
