Hi Jeff,

thanks for the answer, but this is not the problem since we don't use FQDN at all and I double checked it with the admin of the windows box. Furthermore we have a parallel installation with a BB server where the client is showing up correctly.

Aside from this we also have some Solaris 10 clients not showing up on Hobbit but on BB. Since these are zones in a server we have named them server1_zone_project and server2_zone_project. For them I can even see some data arriving when I enable the debug mode of Hobbit but for the first one there is nothing although the packet sniffer shows me incoming data on the server.

Regards Torsten

Hi Torsten, Make sure that the NT Computer name or BB Alias name exactly match your entry in the BBHOSTS file, the names are case sensitive. If your BBHOSTS file is using a FQDN then make sure then bbntcfg has the "Fully Qualified Domain Name" box checked.

Hi all,

I have the problem that a machine running Windows 2003 Server with BBNT 1.08d as client does not show up on the Hobbit server 4.1.2p1 running Linux. Since we have other clients running the same OS and client version which do show up on the server I suppose the problem is elsewhere. No firewall between the 2 machines and ethereal shows me that the data is coming from the client but seems to be ignored by the server. Has anybody had a similar problem and solved it?

My second question is for the msgs test within Hobbit. How can I accomplish that the Hobbit client is checking for entries in /var/log/messages or /var/adm/messages like BB does?

TIA Torsten
