Well, that hasn't worked. the new server test did go green and I waited
for a few polling intervals, then I downed the interface and it did
indeed go red.. all ok so far...but never have I received a page!
strange... For the time being, my live BB server handles all alerts
until I can get this sorted out. I have the bbrelay option set so I can
still test hobbit...
