Hobbit Status and Data Question



Hi All,

I am hoping someone can help with this or provide a link to an explanation,
as I haven't been able to find the information in the archives or how-to's.

I have a server that I am monitoring Citrix licensing usage on. Currently I
am using a VBScript for this purpose that figures out the usage and then
emails me of >90% used and >95% used. It uses the telnet and
WshShell.SendKeys method to do this.

Key Item: The business doesn't want the BBWin agent on this server.

I want to be able to send the 'status' and 'data' to Hobbit and have hobbit:
alert on it, and graph it.

Can I do something as simple as a telnet session to the Hobbit server on
1984/tcp and send the info? What is the syntax for that and what commands
does it accept (i.e. to close the session)?

Thanks all for any help.
