[hobbit] hobbitping oddities

[David Gore]

Not that this is your problem, but I had a similar problem when I had 
two instances of the hobbit server running on two different boxes.  I 
had copied the original server without modifying all of the configs on 
the new server.  In effect the new instance was sending it's data to the 
original server causing the ping checks to go red every 5 minutes (just 
briefly).  Perhaps that will give you some ideas?
