Ports data from other platforms

[Rich Smrcina <rsmrcina (at) wi.rr.com>]

I want to be able to provide ports data to Hobbit from the mainframe 
operating systems.  They do not have and 'standard' Hobbit client nor do 
they present the equivalent of 'netstat' in the way that Linux does.

I can reformat the 'netstat' into the Linux way, that's not a problem. 
What I would like to know is how to present this data to Hobbit so that 
it shows up properly in the ports column (with server based 
configuration and optional tracking capabilities).

Is it as simple as sending the data as a 'ports' test or do I need to 
create a 'client' package and send it.  If so, is the format the same as 
the 'client data' link with just that text data in the message?

Thanks.
