  Thinking about it I am using the Windows BB client too!  It is on one server that I normally just cuss and disable the tests for, but it is reporting =)

      I don't think hobbit plays well with the BB windows client (I don't recal where I saw this).  Have you tried putting BBWin on one of the servers to see if that gives you any output?

Yes here is the relevant line in my hobbit-alerts.cfg ## The hobbit-alerts.cfg file controls who receives alerts# when a status in the BB system goes into a critical# state (usually: red, yellow or purple).## This file is made up from RULES and RECIPIENTS.## A RULE is a filter made from the PAGE where a host# is located in BB; the HOST name, the SERVICE name,# the COLOR of the status, the TIME of day, and the# DURATION of the event.## A RECIPIENT can be a MAIL address, or a SCRIPT.## Recipients can also have rules associated with them,# that modify the rules for a single recipient, e.g.# you can define a rule for alerting, then add an# extra criteria e.g. so a single recipient does not get# alerted until after 20 minutes.## A sample rule: HOST=* Color=red     MAIL kdoyle (at) peak5.com FORMAT=TEXT COLOR=RED REPEAT=20 RECOVERED #      MAIL cio at foo.com DURATION>60 COLOR=red#      SCRIPT /usr/local/bin/sendsms 1234567890 FORMAT=SMS    Can you share your ~/server/etc/hobbit-alerts.cfg please?

      I have a test Hobbit server running on CentOS 5.0 I am running Hobbit 4.1.2p2 and everything appears to be fuinctioning correct except alerting. When I trigger an alert, I get an email with only a subject and no body. I expected to get some information about the alert and the link to the monitored device. I am sure I am missing something fairly simple but I am new to Linux and Hobbit. 



      Any Ideas?
