[hobbit] NCV module doesn't seem to accept GAUGE

[Dan Vande More]

Is it the formatting of your email client, or are you missing a
newline between NCV_ExchDB and NCV_smtphealth? Is NCV_ExchDB's gauge
working?

I have added the appropriate ncv settings to the hobbitserver.cfg file and the also created the definition for the graph in hobbitgraph.cfg.  I am getting the graph to display on my status page but the lines are all flat.  I used the rrdtool to dump the results of my rrd file and it looks like all of the data sets are being entered as DERIVE although I specified GAUGE.  Here are some of the output.
