funny errors in the logs and weird random http monitoring failures

Hello all, 
 At risk of covering an already well worn topic (I did check the archives first, I swear) I'm getting two strange behaviors that may be related.

I've inherited a Hobbit server that was working fine until the unit was reset (rudely), and since then it's been working but has been a little funky.

In my bb-display.log and bb-network I see:
2005-10-11 16:10:39 Could not connect to bbd at 127.0.0.1:1984 - Connection refused
2005-10-11 16:10:39 Whoops ! bb failed to send message - Connection failed
2005-10-11 16:10:39 hobbitd status-board not available
2005-10-11 16:10:39 Could not connect to bbd at 127.0.0.1:1984 - Connection refused
2005-10-11 16:10:39 Whoops ! bb failed to send message - Connection failed
2005-10-11 16:10:43 Could not connect to bbd at 127.0.0.1:1984 - Connection refused
2005-10-11 16:10:43 Whoops ! bb failed to send message - Connection failed
2005-10-11 16:10:43 hobbitd status-board not available
2005-10-11 16:10:43 Could not connect to bbd at 127.0.0.1:1984 - Connection refused
2005-10-11 16:10:43 Whoops ! bb failed to send message - Connection failed


When I do a "netstat -anp" I do see
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address         State       PID/Program name   
tcp        0         0 	0.0.0.0:1984            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN     	6237/hobbitd 

So I'm not sure what gives. It also doesn't seem to be a consistent condition.

Also, perhaps related, I have a few servers in my bb-hosts file that are configured to check http which go into alarm for periods for no apparent reason.
I'm obviously pretty new to Hobbit, so any pointers would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks!
