Re: {bb} bbnet: Stop waiting for server data

["Jerry L. Dodd" <jld3y@cms.mail.virginia.edu>]

Everything was green but when one of the devices had an ssh
failure it did show up as red.  It stayed red until the problem
was resolved.  The red condition was not being reported when
clicking on the History button for the device.  I assumed
that the bbnet error message was the reason for not seeing
the red condition in the history for the device.

Currently the history seems to be working fine but the
bbnet error message is still on each ssh screen for each
device.

Thanks,
Jerry
