[hobbit] drop test not sticking...

[Benjamin Gagnon]

I tried both of the options you suggested and they do not work for me.  I listed the contents of my configuration files in my previous post on this subject (listed again here).  Both of these changes are in place but neither of them is having an effect.

Does this work for you?  I'm using 4.2.

however this is not clear from the documentation)

The "ports" column re-appears because it is one of the columns generated
from the client data. So after you drop it, it will be re-created the
next time the client sends in an update.

If you want to remove the "ports" column because it is clear (white),
then use the "NOCOLUMNS:ports" setting in bb-hosts, or change
hobbitserver.cfg so hobbitd_client is launched with the --no-clear-ports
option.
