Check that you have BBGHOSTS="2" in hobbitserver.cfg. If not, change
it and restart Hobbit.

With that change in place, status reports from clients that HObbit do
not recognize are listed in the "hobbitd" status column for the Hobbit
server itself. You should be able to find your clients from the
IP-address and/or the hostname they use. Once you have that, you can
add a CLIENT:hostname_used_by_the_client to the bb-hosts file so Hobbit 
can match the client status reports with the hosts listed in Hobbit.
