If you only want to change the status lifetime for only for a few hosts, consider using the delayyellow and delayed modifiers in hosts.cfg. It's not quite the same thing, but may give you what you need. Cheers Jeremy

Proxy HTTPS requests don't use CONNECT

Nicola I think you're out of luck on this one. The proxy test is probably intended to test that the proxy is working, not that the end-point URL is working, and consequently is not a full implementation. I note that the docs/TODO file in v4.3.30 shows: > * https proxying (proxy CONNECT protocol) which suggests that CONNECT is not implemented.

Question on controlling alerts.
by jacob＠shadowsoft.com 01 Jul '20

01 Jul '20

If I have multiple files being checked or multiple services being checked how do I control alerts for a specific item.? Such as two processes:? Process1 and Process2.? One of them goes red.? How do I send an alert based on the correct item.? Is it indexed or something.? I have looked in forums and email history for last several years but have not found how to do this? Thanks Paul Jordan
