I've been doing more troubleshooting on this, but I still haven't 
resolved it.

I've created a large test file and filled up the disk partition to 95%, 
which generates a yellow alert.

Then I used this command to acknowledge the alert:

~/hobbit/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdack 158136 10 command line 
acknowledgment"

Got this entry in my data/acks/acklog file:

1112878495      158136  10      158136  np_filename_not_used 
radm200p.nandomedia.com.disk    yellow  command line acknowledgment

So that worked.

Then I waited 10 mins, got my next page and tried to acknowledge it via 
the web, with maint.pl.  Didn't work.

Do the cookies have a lifespan or a one-time use policy?
