Yes, they are only valid for 30 minutes after they've been generated.


Could you try the attached patch ? If causes hobbitd to log if it
receives an ack-message that is discarded because the cookie was not
valid.

Also, if you want to check what the current cookie value is, you can
run

   bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdboard host=HOSTNAME test=TESTNAME fields=hostname,testname,cookie"

It will respond with

      HOSTNAME|TESTNAME|1029348

The cookie is the third ('|'-separated) field.
