I'll bet you have some voluminous process-listings. I still have the
data you sent me, so I'll run that through the netstat parser and see if
I can find the problem.

The client scripts are *really* just shell-scripts. The "top" output is
only used as an informational add-on to the cpu status (Hobbit doesn't
collect any data from the top output), so yes - you can just rip out
that part of the hobbitclient-aix.sh script, and it will work.
I can probably add some code to look for the top binary and only execute
it if it exists.

Like i said, those are just shell scripts so setting up PATH in that
script is an OK way to fix it.
