Dear Mr Volpini,
 
What on earth does "control the time of presence rivelators" mean? I
have no clue.
Is there a protocol to be used for this? How do you get the time from
those?
How do you want to control the time? Monitor? Adjust?
 
Bash and Bourne shell scripting is simple - as long as you only do
simple things with it.

Dear Mr.Storner,
my name's Giorgio Volpini, I'm a Computer Science student of the
university of Pisa.
 
I need some help about your program : Hobbit. Few months ago I used
Hobbit during my stage and now I'm writing a thesis about it. I'd like
to complete my report with a dimostration of Bash-script to use in the
program; my problem is that i don't know Bash-scripting and I have not
enought time to learn it. If I don't give you too much trouble, I needa
script to control the time of presence rivelators connected in Lan with
Hobbit server.
 
I also have a general idea about the script:
    - ping the rivelator
    - compare the time of the answer packet with Hobbit system time
    - decide if it's all ready or not
    - warn the administrator with e-mail, sms or only with Hobbit web
interface
I need only a dimostrative script to add an my report, so is not
important that it works perfectly, but only that bash-script has right
syntax.
 
Your help is very important for me and I think it is an work for you.
 
Thank you very much for your attention.
 
Your faithfully.
 
Giorgio Volpini.
