[hobbit] Checkpoint High Availability Monitoring

[Michael A. Price]

I have a hobbit client running on my R65 SPLAT systems with no problem's. I
statically compiled RHE7.2 hobbit client last year with the libraries and it
works great.

Let me know if you need a copy.

Thanks, michael

P.S. - Just don't tell Checkpoint ;-)
