Anything unusual in the /var/log/hobbit/page.log file ?

What happens if you login as the hobbit user and run the script like
this:

BBCOLORLEVEL=red \
BBALPHAMSG="Just a test" \
ACKCODE="12345" \
RCPT="006xxxxxx" \
BBHOSTNAME="some.host.name" \
MACHIP"10.0.0.1" \
BBSVCNAME="conn" \
BBSVCNUM="300" \
BBHOSTSVC="some.host.name.conn" \
BBHOSTSVCCOMMAS="some,host,name.conn" \
BBNUMERIC="30001000000000112345" \
/usr/local/bb/consigne.ksh 

That's basically what Hobbit does when running the script.
