[hobbit] Sending Hobbit data from one server to another

[Asif Iqbal]

bbrpoxy works fine but I do not understand the comment for [bbproxy]
in habbitlaunch.cfg

# "bbproxy" is the Hobbit proxy server that allows you to forward
status messages
# from a protected network to your Hobbit server. It is not enabled by default,
# since it would conflict with the hobbitd task.
# If you need to run this, then disabled hobbitd and the hobbitd-modules
# above, then enable this. Make sure you enter the IP-address of your
# Hobbit server in the command-line, so that the proxy knows where to forward
# status messages.
[bbproxy]
        ENVFILE /home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
        CMD $BBHOME/bin/bbproxy --hobbitd
--bbdisplay=real.hobbit.server.ip --report=$MACHINE.bbproxy
--no-daemon
               --pidfile=$BBSERVERLOGS/bbproxy.pid
        LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bbproxy.log

It says disable hobbitd and hobbit-modules above. I did. So how about
the hobbitd-modules like [bbdisplay], [bbcombotest],
[bbnet], [bbretest], [hobbitclient]. All those are below [bbproxy] and
needs hobbitd to run. So do I disable them?

If I do then how do I send the connectivity (ping test) report or
start the hobbitclient without installing a separate client for the
server?

So few things needs to be cleared by someone who already using bbproxy
for same scenario that Gary Bahula, the OP of this email, drew.

Thanks
