When you moved the hobbit server, did you change anything in it's config??
When you install Hobbit, it asks for the server's IP, and stashes it in
server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg as

   BBSERVERIP=a.b.c.d

I guess that's so that it doesn't have to rely on DNS lookups working for it
to be able to send status.
