Say your router is "router1.foo.com". Then the message you pass to
the "bb" command to send the status must begin like this:

   $BB $BBDISP "status router1,foo,com.userno green ..."

Note that you must use commas instead of dots in the hostname, since
what comes after the dot is interpreted as the name of the test
(i.e. the column-name in BB).

Have you tried looking at the BB2 page when the status is red (the
"bb2.html" page instead of "bb.html" - click on the arrows-in-a-circle
icon to go there) ? You should be able to see the status message
there, but possibly with a wrong host- and test-name.
