Try this -

To forward using bbproxy you need to:
Add --listen=0.0.0.0:1985 to [hobbitd] in your forwarding server's 
hobbitlaunch.cfg (port 1984 is now used by the proxy instead)
CMD hobbitd --listen=0.0.0.0:1985 --pidfile=$BBSERVERLOGS/hobbitd.pid 
--restart=$BBTMP/hobbitd.chk \
  --checkpoint-file=$BBTMP/hobbitd.chk --checkpoint-interval=600 
--log=$BBSERVERLOGS/hobbitd.log \
  --admin-senders=127.0.0.1,$BBSERVERIP --store-clientlogs=!msgs

Enable [bbproxy] in your forwarding server's hobbitlaunch.cfg (remove 
DISABLED) and add the following to the CMD line
--bbdisplay=[mainServerIP]:1984,127.0.0.1:1985 (NB:127.0.0.1 is last 
because the last variable points to the server that configures clients) 
to tell the proxy to forward requests to both servers
Add --listen=0.0.0.0:1984 to make sure it listens for incoming messages 
on port 1984

Change the BBPORT setting in hobbitserver.cfg to point at the 1985 port. 
This setting is used e.g. by the web CGI's that talk to the hobbitd 
service, so it is required to point at that port and not the proxy. The 
display will not work locally if this is left at 1984
Add BBPORT=1984 to CMD sections of [bbnet] and [bbretest] sections in 
hobbitlaunch.cfg otherwise they will bypass the proxy using the new 
value of BBPORT inserted in hobbitserver.cfg.
#Example
CMD BBPORT=1984 bbtest-net --report --ping --checkresponse

Restart Xymon
