I dont think that's the problem, since these settings are silently
ignored by Hobbit.

A more likely cause is some confusion in the naming. Windows systems
sometimes report using the full name (including some domain), sometimes
they just use the plain hostname.

If you change hobbitserver.cfg to have BBHGHOSTS=2, the "hobbitd" column
will show you what unknown hosts (meaning: not in the bb-hosts file) are 
reporting into Hobbit.
