Suggestions for next hobbit release

Hello Henrik!

I have some suggestions for the next hobbit release:
- reports from hosts which are not known by the server should appear in 
the error report of the hobbitd. That would make it easier to find 
misconfiguration especially with the hostname the client sends.
- Succesfully sent messages should be logged to ensure that the client 
works correctly. It would be enough to log the last sent message for 
having a static small size of the logfile
- Bugfix: The Linux client does not stop the vmstat-process by stopping 
hobbitclient. See the shell-output below:

[root (at) *** /]# ps -ef | grep hobbit

I hope you think these features could be useful and implement them into 
the next release.
Thanks and best regards
