RE: [hobbit] Distro

["Jason Hand" <jason (at) hands4christ.org>]

Ubuntu uses Apt which has Hobbit as a package.  I have not seen the more
recent versions yet nor the name change to Xymon in Apt or Aptitude though.
I'm sure it will be available at some point.

From a support point of view, I would recommend any distro that has Xymon /
Hobbit available as a package. I notice on CentOS that at least one of the
packages isn't available unless you add rpmforge repository.
