I'm using the release candidate 4.12p1 on debian linux and several others.
Just to clarify, 4.1.2p1 is a full release version - release candidates
always have "...rcX" in the version number.
My problem is, that I have to monitor computers which are connected to
the internet by a dialup dsl connection. Those are getting a new
ip-address from the isp every 24 hours and ddclient is updating it to
dynamic dns.
Put them in the bb-hosts file with IP "0.0.0.0" - that tells Hobbit
they have a dynamic IP.
10.0.0.101 host1 ...
and realized, that I misspelled the ip-address. So I changed it to
10.0.0.103 but hobbit keeps pinging the old ip address.
Hobbit will in fact always use the hostname and do a DNS lookup,
unless you've put "testip" on that entry in the bb-hosts file,
or you are using the "--dns=ip" option for running the network
tests. So first you should check what IP "host1" really resolves
to (use the "host" or "dig" commands) - and don't forget to check
the local /etc/hosts file on the Hobbit server.
