First thing to do is to look at the "ps" listing this client sends to
Hobbit. On the "procs" status page, near the bottom is a link to the
"Client data". In there is a section beginning with "[ps]" - this is the
data used for the procs status. You can also access it directly via a
URL like this:
http://my.hobbit.server/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?CLIENT=lo-dev01&SECTION=ps

You can also grab it from the Hobbit server with
   bb 127.0.0.1 "clientlog lo-dev01 section=ps"
If you could run this command and dump the output to a file, then mail
it to me that would be helpful.
