Well since it is not looking at /var/log/messages file I decided to
test with log test

(hobbit)@hobbit:~$ bbcmd hobbitd_client --test
2007-08-22 10:09:25 Using default environment file
/export/home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
Hostname (.=end, ?=dump, !=reload) []: cer-apps2-01.company.net
Hosttype []: freebsd
Test (cpu, mem, disk, proc, log, port): log
log filename: /var/log/messages
To read log data from a file, enter '@FILENAME' at the prompt
log line: WARNING
log line:
Log status is red

&red WARNING

Hostname (.=end, ?=dump, !=reload) [cer-apps2-01.company.net]:
Test (cpu, mem, disk, proc, log, port): log
log filename: /var/adm/messages
To read log data from a file, enter '@FILENAME' at the prompt
log line: ERROR
log line:
Log status is red

&red ERROR

So from above it looks like  hobbit is looking at both
/var/log/messages and /var/adm/messages file for the host
cer-apps2-01.company.net.

So it is indeed not behaving right.
