The obvious thing to check is of course the ack code. If you run
  bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdboard host=MYHOST fields=testname,cookie"
it will give you a list of the tests and their corresponding ack
code ("cookie" in Hobbit terms). So - are you using the right one?

I notice your cookies have "99" at the end. I seem to recall that
BB did something special with ack-codes that ended with 99; Hobbit
doesn't do that.
