Server-to-client test only happens at start-up

[Ward, Martin]

Hi all,

I am monitoring a number of servers that have ssh running on them. In my
bb-hosts file on the Hobbit 4.2.0 server I have the following entries
for it:

.default        defaultsettings # testip pulldata ssh
10.44.85.246    cin0.lon.server.com   #

The problem is that the ssh connection is only tested when the Hobbit
server is started up. I've trawled through the Hobbit logs but can't
find any mention of any errors (or actual tests for that matter).

Can anyone offer suggestions about where I should start looking?
