Thanks! Here's what I sent to the BBWin-list.  :-)

Hi!
I'm new to the list and BB/Hobbit. Just did a fresh (and successful)
install of BB server and clients (linux and windows servers) when I
discovered Hobbit. Installed Hobbit only to find out that the lates BB
client couldn't talk to Hobbit.

After that I found out about this project and the the cool BBWin version
0.7. The transition from BB client to BBWin went smoothly on Windows
2003 Server. The VBS-script for generating BBWin.cfg is brilliant.
However, the script didn't like running on a 64-bit Windows 2003 Server.
FYI, I had to tweak the HKLM-registery line to read something like this:
...\Software\Wow6432Node\BBWin\...
Problem solved!

Got a problem, though: My one and only Windows 2000 Server seems to not
like the service. Trying to restart the service couldn't stop it; had to
resort to 'pskill'. Still, it's not reporting to my Hobbit server and
I've gone over it from the registery settings to my bb-hosts file.
Everything says it 'should' be working. But I'm a bit suspicious since
the service is so difficult to do a restart. (The old BB client to BB
server did work perfectly...)

Other than that, I have to say this is a fantastic utility!! Thank
you!!!
