Appending tests to client data

Hi All,

I asked this question before but got a mixed response.  If I wanted to
add an additional test to the client data received by hobbit from a
client machine with the intention of writing a server side module to
produce a status message (the way the core hobbit tests do) how would I
go about sending the data from the client to the server?

I have looked at the man pages for bb and I think it's the data "stream"
i.e:

$BBHOME/bin/bb <Server IP> "data foo,bar,com.test\n This is a test"

But after running this nothing appears on the server - have I
misunderstood? If not where is this "data" message being stored on the
server?

Thanks,
Jason.
