example in the Hobbit doc. When it works when run by hand, then you can
add it to the client launch configuration. You might want to "time" the
script for a few runs to make sure that the script is not going to be a
problem. If it can't run on a 5 minute cycle then you will need to take
some steps to allow Hobbit to run it less often.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
