AIX 51 ML07 bug

[James B Horwath <Jim_Horwath (at) glic.com>]

I have found a bug with AIX ML07 (not with the Hobbit code) on the 
operating system side. 
In the code hobbitclient-aix.sh, the line: netstat -an | grep "^tcp" gets 
caught in an infinite loop grep'ing a MAC.  The program continues until 
the file system fills or until I am alerted for a purple condition and I 
correct the condition.  I modified the line to this: netstat -an | grep 
"^tcp" | tail -5000 and it seems to fix it.  I haven't heard anyone 
complain of this condition.  It appears to happen only on AIX 5.1 ML07.

Regards,
Jim
