Hi Henrik

I upgraded this morning from bbgen 3.6 to Hobbit 4.1.2p1 (with ~ 1000 
hosts), and have a few problems :


- I can't display the history of one of my test :

http://10.50.80.44/hobbit-cgi/bb-hist.sh?HISTFILE=cronos.AHD&ENTRIES=50&IP=10.50.80.44&DISPLAYNAME=cronos 
returns an internal server error

[Tue Nov 29 12:08:08 2005] [error] [client 10.50.8.55] Premature end of 
script headers: bb-hist.sh, referer: 
http://10.50.80.44/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?HOSTSVC=cronos.AHD&IP=10.50.80.44&DISPLAYNAME=cronos


- I had a coredump with bbgen :

- some of my devices (running the Quest BB client 3.01) do not update 
their statuses as frequently as they should
Even if I add a process to check, it doesn't appear in Hobbit.
Could it be a compatibility problem (my tests with a Quest BB client 
3.01 running on XP SP2 ran fine).


- one of my custom network test keeps getting "Unexpected service response"
Its definition is this :
[ica]
   expect "ICA"
   port 1494


- I get a lot of errors in page.log :
2005-11-29 12:38:03 Bad timespec (missing colon or wrong weekdays): 
1-6:0000:0700

Do I have to use "TIME=123456:0000:0700" ?


Many thanks in advance for your help.
