I have installed temperature.sh in ext and made a few fixes.

1. temperature.sh seems to need nawk and not awk so I had to set the in the .sh file.

2. It has to pass the name temperature and not temp. This took me a little time to figure out.

On the client I entered the following in the clientlaunch.cfg file

[temperature] ENVFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg CMD $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/ext/temperature.sh LOGFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/logs/temperature.log INTERVAL 5m

This seems to be work just fine. I get the temperatue column and trends.

Now on the server I modified the server hobbitlaunch.cfg with the following

run dead-cat temperature.sh

[temperature] ENVFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg CMD $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/ext/temperature.sh LOGFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/logs/temperature.log INTERVAL 5m

In my client directory temperature.logs I get the following when I start hobbit.

*****Sun-Fire-280R*********** 2006-01-26 14:29:43 connect to bbd failed - Connection refused 2006-01-26 14:29:43 Whoops ! bb failed to send message - Connection failed *****Sun-Fire-280R*********** *****Sun-Fire-280R***********

Maybe this happens at the beginning of the start when temperature.sh cannot contact bbd because it is not up yet.
