[hobbit] citirx user graph (sendmail graph)

To get the data remotely just add the remote hostname to the ntpq
command
rdeal at rdeal-lx % ntpq -c "rv 0 offset" ranger
assID=0 status=06a4 leap_none, sync_ntp, 10 events,
event_peer/strat_chg, offset=0.752

also to compensate for the output requirement I am using:
#!/bin/sh

$BB $BBDISP "data $MACHINE.ntpstat

`ntpq -c \"rv 0 offset\" | awk 'BEGIN {FS = \"=\"} $1 != \"offset\"
{print;} $1 == \"offset\" {print \"Offset: \", $2}' `
"

exit 0

probably a cleaner way to make the change but this is the first thing
that came to mind ;)

It's basically this:


   #!/bin/sh

   $BB $BBDISP "data $MACHINE.ntpstat

   `ntpq -c \"rv 0 offset\"`
   "

   exit 0

Now, this won't work with the 4.0.3 ntpstat handler because I started
out with an existing script that did some formatting of the output. But
from 4.0.4 the "ntpq -c rv" output will be handled directly by Hobbit
and generate your ntpstat graph.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think you cannot get the ntpstat data remotely.

Thanks, added.
