Subject: [hobbit] Summary data: pull from upsteam server instead of
pushing to


Here's the situation.  I have one hobbit server running on a DMZ'ed
machine, and another hobbit server running on the internal network (the
protected side of the DMZ).  The general policy is to not allow any DMZ
host to initiate connections to the internal servers (security policy
and all).  However, I would like to have a summary of the DMZ hobbit
server to be displayed on the internal hobbit server. 

According to the bb-hosts man page, the "summary" command pushes data to
the upstream server--in this case, it would be my internal hobbit
server.  Is there a way for the upstream server to pull the data instead
( i.e. the internal "upstream" server pull from the DMZ'ed hobbit
server)?  If not currently, are there plans to add this feature to a
future release of Hobbit?
