[hobbit] Disk monitoring

Hi Christian,

the "Failed to get a message" error indicates that you're running the
client in "local mode", i.e. it uses a hobbit-clients.cfg which is 
maintained on the CLIENT, not on the Hobbit server. So you should
either change nestor to run in the normal (non-local) mode, or
update the hobbit-clients.cfg on nestor.

Oh, and the "Failed to get a message" error is harmless.


Regards,
Henrik
