[hobbit] Solaris 10 SMF monitor [was RE: Ext script to monitor Solaris 10 services]

[Ward, Martin]

I did wonder about trying to avoid hard-coding the services but am not
skilled enough in Hobbit to know where to do it.

I tried doing what you suggested but I can't persuade the client to read
the data from the server.

I have the following on the server in the client-local.cfg file:
[nms4.lon.oss.colt.net]
svc:/network/ssh:default|svc:/site/tftpd:default

And this is in the bb-hosts file:
10.44.85.209            nms4.lon.oss.colt.net   # ssh

Yet after restarting both server and client I only get this in the
~hobbit/client/tmp/logfetch.nms4.lon.oss.colt.net.cfg:
log:/var/adm/messages:10240
log:/var/log/syslog:10240

Any pointers?
