RE: [hobbit] RE: Hobbit Emails empty

So where would I look to see what message is being logged by the client?
It appears this is not being sent to sendmail?

	Thinking about it I am using the Windows BB client too!  It is
on one server that I normally just cuss and disable the tests for, but
it is reporting =)

		I don't think hobbit plays well with the BB windows
client (I don't recal where I saw this).  Have you tried putting BBWin
on one of the servers to see if that gives you any output?

		Some further information. My clients (mostly Windows2003
servers are running the Big Brother client, version 1-08d

		Can you share your ~/server/etc/hobbit-alerts.cfg
please?

		I have a test Hobbit server running on CentOS 5.0 I am
running Hobbit 4.1.2p2 and everything appears to be fuinctioning correct
except alerting. When I trigger an alert, I get an email with only a
subject and no body. I expected to get some information about the alert
and the link to the monitored device. I am sure I am missing something
fairly simple but I am new to Linux and Hobbit. 

		 

		Any Ideas?
