Hi,
Within the release notes of 4.0.3 it says:
Beginning with this release, Hobbit can no longer be used as
an add-on to Big Brother. Hobbit retains compatibility with
BB clients and extension scripts, but you can no longer run
eg. the Hobbit network test tool and have it report to a
Big Brother server.
and
* All remnants of Big Brother compatibility have been
removed. If you want to stick with the old Big Brother
tool, use bbgen. This allowed for some much needed
cleaning up of the bbgen code that loaded the status
data, especially for the handling of purple status logs.
Also, the sending of messages has dropped all support
for the Big Brother method of sending "page" messages
when a status-message is sent with an alert-color, so
the BBPAGE and BBPAGERS settings are no longer used.
Does this means that the BBRELAY-option from a BB-server to a Hobbit-server
on another host does not work anymore?
Thanks,
Peter
