Hobbit doesn't have separate paging servers. But if you mean "how can
I make sure my ack goes to both display servers?" then the answer is:

1) In hobbitserver.cfg on both display servers, after the BBDISPLAY
   setting add
        # For the enable/disable and acknowledge scripts.
        maint/BBDISP="0.0.0.0"
        maint/BBDISPLAYS="10.0.0.1 172.16.12.10"
   (replace with your display-server IP-adresses)
2) In hobbitcgi.cfg, change the line for the bb-ack.cgi tool:
        # bb-ack.cgi options
        CGI_ACK_OPTS="--area=maint --env=/usr/lib/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg"

See the hobbitserver.cfg(5) man-page for how environment areas work.
