Package: hobbit Severity: normal Version: 4.2.0.dfsg-14lenny3 I have one system which hosts some virtual machines. SSH access to them is given by doing port-forwarding on some higher ports.
So in bb-hosts, I wrote: 123.456.789.123 somehostname # ssh ssh:2200 ssh:2222 On our hobbit IRC bot (from hobbit plugins) I now see a steady flickering between yellow and green: 19:44:47 <somehobbitbot> somehostname ssh is yellow (was green) 19:44:50 <somehobbitbot> somehostname ssh is green (was yellow) 19:45:12 <somehobbitbot> somehostname ssh is yellow (was green) 19:45:14 <somehobbitbot> somehostname ssh is green (was yellow) 19:45:48 <somehobbitbot> somehostname ssh is yellow (was green) 19:45:51 <somehobbitbot> somehostname ssh is green (was yellow) 19:46:49 <somehobbitbot> somehostname ssh is yellow (was green) 19:46:51 <somehobbitbot> somehostname ssh is green (was yellow) On the website in the last log entries section of the test's history it looked even stranger: Mon Jun 28 19:46:49 2010 0:01:01 Mon Jun 28 19:46:49 2010 none Mon Jun 28 19:45:48 2010 0:01:01 Mon Jun 28 19:45:48 2010 none Mon Jun 28 19:45:12 2010 0:00:36 Mon Jun 28 19:45:12 2010 none Mon Jun 28 19:44:45 2010 0:00:27 Mon Jun 28 19:44:45 2010 none If I go back to one ssh entry (independent if I choose the one causing the green or the one causing the yellow state) in that bb-hosts line, everything is fine and calm again and the state displays the state of the one single ssh server tested then. IMHO the ssh test (and possibly others which allow the addition of port numbers) should work similar to the http test which is capable of accumulating the test results of more than one URL given in its bb-hosts line. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.5 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages hobbit depends on: ii hobbit-client 4.2.0.dfsg-14lenny3 client for the Hobbit network moni ii libc6 2.7-18lenny4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.11-1+lenny1 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpcre3 7.6-2.1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii libpng12-0 1.2.27-2+lenny3 PNG library - runtime ii librrd4 1.3.1-4 Time-series data storage and displ ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8g-15+lenny7 SSL shared libraries hobbit recommends no packages. hobbit suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
