So why are you using such an old client on a new install?

Did you edit the ~hobbit/client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg file and put the IP address of your server in the BBDISP field?

The errors are telling us that the client can't talk to the hobbit server. 

Seriously consider upgrading to xymon 4.3 something.

Subject: [Xymon] cleint not reporting to hobbit server

Greetings,

I have this one linux client that is not reporting 'disk', 'cpu', 'ssh' and the custom external script raid-monitor to the hobbit server. 

What is reporting is 'conn', 'info', and 'trends'.

I installed the client with 'apt-get install hobbit-client' on a ubuntu server.

On the hobbitclient.log, it indicates:
2014-08-12 09:16:27 Cannot determine IP address of message recipient 10.218.275.25
2014-08-12 09:16:27 Whoops ! bb failed to send message - Cannot resolve hostname

2014-08-12 09:21:27 Whoops ! bb failed to send message - Cannot resolve hostname

On the clientlaunch.log, it indicates,
2014-08-12 08:51:18 hobbitlaunch starting
2014-08-12 08:51:18 Loading tasklist configuration from /etc/hobbit/clientlaunch.cfg
2014-08-12 08:51:18 Task raid-monitor terminated, status 2

On the hobbit server in the /etc/hobbit/bb-hosts, it indicates:
xxx..xxx.xxx.xxx  server01 #raid

Will somebody lead me in the right direction, thanks in advance.
