Change the INTERVAL setting for the [bbnet] task in hobbitlaunch.cfg

Note that you should not do this if you have lots of systems that you
poll, since it's possible that it just won't be able to run all of the
network tests once a minute. In that case, you should pick out the
important ones that you do want to run every minute, flag them with a
"NET:1minutepoll" and setup an additional [bbnet2] task that runs a
script like this:

    #!/bin/sh

    BBLOCATION="1minutepoll"
    export BBLOCATION
    bbtest-net --ping --checkresponse 

    exit 0
