I setup bbtest-net with the --debug option and I see in the bbnetwork.log file the following:

All of the DNS 'Add...' messages and 'Got...' messages are issued with in 1 second (07:49:53-07:49:54) for all hosts, except for the one called people3 which comes back 30 seconds later. The hosts with the 'DNS lookup failed...' messages are all configured as dialup.
After this there are no additional messages in the file.

Rich,
I had some similar problems some time back -- it appears that that the network test module can stall out if you have DNS problems, even though it is not SUPPOSED to do so. You can verify by adding the names that are not being found to the host table on the network test host and see if the problem clears up.

I commented out the three hosts and restarted Hobbit. Still no network tests. The debug log appears to stop in the same place.
I tried to run a couple of them manually using:
~/server/bin/bbcmd bbtest-net --debug people3
This host is good and the network tests for that host come out OK and appear on the web page. So it appears that the process works (at least a host at a time).
When I run the command with one of the hosts that could not be found, I get this (a small subset of the actual messages produced, but they seem relevant):

There's an 18 second pause after it indicates that it couldn't find the host and after the tests have completed. It does send the correct status, it is a dialup host that could not be contacted and send a clear.

BSD is more free than GPL (you don't have to give it back if you don't want to). BSD Hobbit will attract more resources in companies to participate the Hobbit project.

With the GPL you don't have to "give back" changes unless you transfer the program to another company or individual. The GPL just requires that the code be available wherever the binaries are. You are perfectly free, under the GPL, to change anything you want for your own use, and not give anybody else the changes.
Thanks, Larry Barber

You're right, of course - but I don't see that as a problem. What you do internally for your own benefit is not something I need to be involved in. (Of course, if you do something really neat and generally useful, I would appreciate it if you would share it with the rest of us).
The problem with the BSD license from my point of view is that it is unfair - you can take my code and benefit from it (eg sell it), but I cannot get your improvements and use them to benefit the whole project, or even just my own use of Hobbit. It's an anti-social license, and I really don't see any reason why it would be beneficial to change license.
(The "more companies would participate if it were BSD licensed" argument is rubbish. There are lots of examples of companies contributing code to GPL-licensed projects, simply because it is in their best interest to have an active community working on the software that they use - and even rely upon for their business).
Regards, Henrik
I can second that, the only reason why my company started with hobbit at all was the community, the fact that it was GPL vs. BSD never entered the argument and now we have 9 sites monitored and soon will have a further 5 in western Europe alone along with x in Russia, America, Japan etc. etc. all in the hope of eventually getting one server that hosts them all through bb proxy (but that is still a ways off yet :) ). Although I do admit that I have not really contributed much myself :( mainly because I am still learning but am getting better...I think so anyway :)
But if there is anything I feel worth sharing do I just put it in the /incoming directory?

It's easier for me if you could put it into "The Shire" project on Sourceforge.
Galen Johnson runs "The Shire" - Galen, could you point us to a brief description of how to go about adding stuff ?

That is while it waits for the ping tests to complete (hobbit runs the hobbitping or fping tool in parallel with doing the other network tests).
