Assuming you're using the 4.2 release candidate, try the "Ghost report"
and see if your client is on the list. If it is, then it is using a
different hostname for its reporting than what you have in the bb-hosts
file.

Just look in the files in the ~hobbit/client/logs/ directory. And check
if there's a ~hobbit/client/tmp/msg.<hostname>.txt file with lots of
info collected by your client script.
