bbtest-net hangs

[Iain M Conochie]

Morning hobbiters

    I am having an issue with hobbit 4.2.0 built on a RedHat 9.0 system. 
Basically, after running for about 15 hours or so, the bbtest-net command 
hangs, and all network tests turn purple. Here is the stanza from the 
hobbitlaunch.cfg file with regards the bbtest-net

[bbnet]
         ENVFILE /BIG/usr/local/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
         NEEDS hobbitd
         CMD bbtest-net --report --ping --checkresponse --debug
         LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-network.log
         INTERVAL 5m

    The last thing in the logs is the retrieval of the DNS for all the 
hosts and then ... nothing. i.e

2006-09-02 17:02:11 Got DNS result for host narya.servista.com : 
192.168.1.32
2006-09-02 17:02:11 Got DNS result for host skye.int.servista.com : 
192.168.1.452006-09-02 17:02:11 Got DNS result for host 
oban.int.servista.com : 192.168.1.722006-09-02 17:02:11 Got DNS result for 
host orkney.servista.com : 192.168.1.30
2006-09-02 17:02:11 Got DNS result for host islay.servista.com : 
192.168.1.28
2006-09-02 17:02:11 Got DNS result for host tennessee.int.servista.com : 
192.168.1.109

    Has anyone had any experience of this kind of issue before? Is there 
any way I can get some more logging to see what is happening?

    Cheers
