I don't mind, but I'm going to copy the hobbit list on the reply so that
others running into the same issue can fix it.

statusbbgen.sh also needs to be twiddled to use the hobbit executables.
I got it to work like this:

[me at myhost bbmap]$ cat statusbbgen.sh
#!/bin/sh
# @version $Id: statusbbgen.sh,v 2.5 2003/12/12 22:39:05 fredo Exp $
# @copyright 2003 
# call bbgen >= 2.5 to create bb4 web page when click on host/group
TEMPBBHOST=$1
BBHOME=/usr/lib/hobbit/server
export BBHOME
#. ${BBHOME}/etc/bbdef.sh
BBHOSTS=${TEMPBBHOST}
export BBHOSTS
BBSKIN="/bb/gifs"
export BBSKIN
TEMPLATE="bb"
${BBHOME}/bin/bbcmd BBHOSTS=${TEMPBBHOST}; ${BBHOME}/bin/bbgen --template=${TEMPLATE} --embedded 2> /dev/null
