Two minor items on hobbit (very minor)
I've been looking at hobbit as it progressed, without actually implementing. Tomorrow, I plan on throwing the Big Red Switch and cutting over to hobbit, so I re-read all the doc.
First -- would someone with an artistic bent please do a logo for hobbit suitable to adding to a web menu (for those not using the hobbit main display as their home page)? (I'm bent, but not artisticly).
Second -- I've just read the mini-faq on where the name came from. And here I'd always thought 'hobbit' stood for Henrik's Own Big Brother Integrated Toolset. . .

Fantastic. Hope all goes well.
I've been running Hobbit for a few months on my backup system, so I knew it was working OK. But this past Tuesday I put Hobbit on our production system. The reactions so far have been very positive.

Me too. Some sort of logo would be nice, but I'm not capable of doing that myself.

Taking the plunge, eh? Glad you could join those of us who have already entrusted our systems with your handiwork! ;)

As they have been here, and I'm sure most everywhere else. Hobbit provides such a good window into the everyday life of a network that it's just impossible to think about operating without it. I feel like I have a finger on the pulse of nearly everything that is happening at a given moment (or at least all of the pulses I've configured to be able to put my "finger" on :).
We've caught so many problems before they became *real* problems that there's absolutely no way I'd go back to the non-Hobbit days. None.
Thanks a lot Henrik. Hobbit is a wonderful tool.

Tom/Henrik,
I am not sure what type of logo you both are referring to, but I have two versions I am using internally.
Both are animated gif files. One is quite small and is suitable for pages that are accessed via modem. The other is larger and has a transition effect which is suited to broadband access.
The files are too big to send to the list, so I will email them to Henrik and he can decide if they should be made available.

That is soooo appropriate :-)
