[hobbit] Hobbit cluster and DRDB

[Thomas]

Hi again,

Thanks for your answers, I will give it a go and post my results.

I am thinking about adding Mon for local hobbit monitoring, but for that 
to work I would need some "ping - pong" responce from opening a sesion 
to the deamon. Anybody know what I could send and what I should expect 
back ?
