Ignore statement in hobbit-alerts.cfg

Hi, 
	We're having some trouble getting hobbit to ignore a red proc on
a restart of a process. 

In bb-hosts, I have:

204.155.140.144 iadpimp1-vsnl.interprise.com    #
DOWNTIME=*:0200:0230:systemrestart

In hobbit-clients.cfg, I have:

HOST=iadpimp1-vsnl.interprise.com
        PROC tail 0 1 red "TEXT=tail - testing paging and ignoring
times"
        PROC AppServer.exe 3 7 red "TEXT=Visionael Application Server"

And in hobbit-alerts.cfg, I have:

$HG-PRIMARY=starsky(.*)|iadorap1(.*)|iadnasp1(.*)|mdsobj3(.*)|cher(.*)|h
umility(.*)|stnpres1(.*)|stntrapp1(.*)|mdstf1(.
*)|firetwo(.*)|totlccwm1(.*)|brinkley(.*)|iadcap1(.*)|iadcap2(.*)|stngeo
p1(.*)|iadpres1(.*)|iadpimp1-vsnl(.*)|iadpimp1-
ca(.*)|iadtatp1(.*)|iadobjs1(.*)|phm1ssxc01m
   .
   .
   .
HOST=%$HG-PRIMARY COLOR=red EXSERVICE=memory DURATION>7
        MAIL $NG-IM-ADMIN
        IGNORE HOST=iadpimp1-vsnl(.*) SERVICE=proc
TIME=*:0200:0230,*:1500:1600
        MAIL $NG-IM-ONCALL FORMAT=SMS



We've tried many other combinations. And can get it to work for a test
SERVICE, using bb to make the test service red. 
But when we have procs in there, I get paged no matter what. At 2:15am.
Not so fun.

I put the "PROC tail 0 1 ..." in for testing with proc. 

This happened in 4.2.0. So today, I downloaded 4.2.2 in source forge and
compiled and installed it.  Does the same thing.

I'd also tried the DOWNTIME directive (why you see it there) but that's
not working either. 

Anybody have any words of wisdom here?

Thanks,
Paul.
