I am wondering if there is a way to make the name of the host in the bb-hosts file a link for http, telnet or ssh. Or if there is another way of getting something like that.

We are using the notes file in the server/www/notes directory to hyperlink to the system in our CMDB
the contents of the notes files is
<html> <head> <title>sodn035u</title> </head> <frameset> <frame src="http://servicedesk/ncm/index.php?N=sodn035u"> </frameset> </html> which will open the corresponding webpage of the CMDB

Are you saving that file as the name of the host in the bb-hosts file?

yes, correct.
The files are automatically created from the database, so easy to maintain.

We actually modified the source for hobbit to do that for us. We have over 500 firewalls with a common naming scheme, so anything that starts with certain characters makes the host name a link to https://ip-address. But it did require some hacking. If that sounds appealing, I'll see about getting you a patch listing.

We've configured bbgen to make the hostname a link to our CMDB: CMD bbgen $BBGENOPTS --report --wml --rss --nopropyellow=updates,conn --docurl=http://sanity/hardware/search?criteria=hostname&search_string=%s

We use TWiki for documentation and changed the settings:
/home/users/hobbit/server/etc # grep -i twiki * hobbitlaunch.cfg: CMD bbgen $BBGENOPTS --report --docurl=/twiki/bin/view/Hobbit/DeviceLink%s?cover=print hobbitserver.cfg:COLUMNDOCURL="/twiki/bin/view/Hobbit/CheckLink%s?cover=print"
If you click on a link that has no TWiki page, you can create a new one. All
pages starting with DeviceLink are documentation about the hosts in hobbit.
All pages starting with CheckLink are documentation about the checks in
hobbit. It is easy to create a TWiki page that creates an overview off all
documentation.
