[hobbit] hobbit-alerts.cfg IGNORE TIME

[Patrick Nixon]

Lee,
 I did something similar, but instead of doing an ignore on the alert,
I put the server into a downtime for the window.

DOWNTIME=cam:60:0000:2400:Offline2,cam:W:1930:0830:Offline

The first one puts service cam into downtime all day saturday and
sunday, and the second does it all Weekdays 730p to 830a

Hope that helps and thanks for the link in your email, I'm checking
out Glance now :)
