Re: [hobbit] New enable/disable tool ready for testing

First of all, I like the new enadis tool. Thanks for putting out the new, non-perl version so soon.

The patch implements the same feature as the first version - you can
disable tests for a single host from the "info" page - but it adds an
extra script "hobbit-enadis.cgi" that takes over from the maint.pl
script.

This may be a local problem, but after I built hobbit with this new patch in place my old maint.pl remained and the only way I could access the new script was by manually typing in the correct path URL.

hobbit-enadis.cgi displays an administration page very much 
like the maint.pl one; I've unashamedly stolen Tom's JavaScript code
and used it in my implementation. (I hope he doesn't mind - I'll ask
for his permission). However, to better cope with the enormous
host-list I've added the ability to filter hosts using three regular
expressions - against the hostname, the pagename of the host, and the
IP address. That makes it slightly more usable to me...

I like the new enadis page layout much more than the last. However, I do have one comment--there is no easy way to enable several hosts at once, they still have to be done one by one. Can this be changed to allow group enables?
