RE: [hobbit] Disk Status in hobbit-clients.cfg

Henrik,

Thanks for that, I looked at the web version of the man page which hasn't
been updated and in the hobbit-clients.cfg which doesn't mention it either.

I see this has changed for file min/max size reporting but unlike the
documentation doesn't seem to default to KB but to bytes now!!

Regards,

Chris
