ftp/mssql red all the time. fine with previous version.

Hi,

I have a few questions, I hope someone can help me.


I've been using Hobbit for almost 2 years now and it was version 4.2 on 
Ubuntu 6.06.

Last week I decided to replace the whole thing and installed the latest 
4.3.0-beta2 from a deb package on Ubuntu 8.04.1.

Since then I have some problems.


ftp is always "red" on both servers I have this check on.

And so is mssql I defined in bb-services like this:

[mssql]             
  options telnet         
  port 1433


this also happens on both servers I check.


I still have my old server and both the tests are working great. The 
configuration was copied from the old bb-services and bb-hosts files.

The environment (firewalls, etc.) had not changed.

At first I suspected the manually added services, but I also have this:

[port80]  
  options telnet
  port 80


and it works great.


The other question is regarding the linux hobbit client. I have a 
cluster of Squids behind a pfSense firewall.

There's a hobbit client installed on every server.

With the old Hobbit version, the Squids would sometimes transmit a 
truncated msg. But I never gave it too much thought.

But with the new version of Xymon, I see those Squids constantly with 
cpu purple, or worse - disks red. Of course, after a few minutes/hours 
it comes back to normal,

but why would it happen in the first place? By the way, regarding the 
disks:

How is this even possible?

Anyone has any idea? I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks.

Lenny.
