RE: {bb} Defining a second BBNET

["Kimberly McKinnis" <kmckinnis@macrovision.com>]

Hmm... If I understand you correctly, then that's what I am doing.
Friedchicken is the secondary BBNET and newvpn is what I want it to
ping, because bb cannot reach it. What am I doing wrong?

Main bb server's bb-hosts:
10.230.19.84 bigbrother.domain.net # BBDISPLAY BBPAGER BBNET ssh
<ip address> friedchicken.domain.net # noconn 

Then... On friedchicken:
10.230.19.84 bigbrother.domain.net # BBDISPLAY BBPAGER
<ip address> friedchicken.domain.net # BBNET testip dns http://<ip
address>
<ip address> newvpn.domain.net #

As long as you have the local (secondary) BBNET machine as an entry in
the bb-hosts file on your remote BBDISPLAY (with noconn so that it does
not try to ping too), then your display should pick up the status that
the local BBNET sends it. Otherwise, it'll just show it on the bb2 page
when it's non-green.

Cheers, Phil
