I get the same effect in IE8. This is correct behaviour based on the contents of xymonbody.css: a:link { color: #00FFAA; text-decoration: underline; } a:visited { color: #FFFF44; text-decoration: underline; } This should make all hyperlinks green unless they have been visited, in which case they are yellow. If you want to change this, edit ~xymon/server/www/gifs/xymonbody.css. For example: a:link { color: #87a9e5; text-decoration: underline; } a:visited { color: #87a9e5; text-decoration: underline; } or a:link { text-decoration: none; } a:visited { text-decoration: none; } Malcolm -- BBWin Development - The Windows client for Big Brother and Xymon http://bbwin.sourceforge.net http://xymon.sourceforge.net

What is the significance of the yellow bars under some of the column names? Some are green, some are yellow, and I've seen some go yellow and back to green? -- Michael Beatty Sherwin-Williams IT Analyst/Developer michael.beatty at sherwin.com 216-515-7374

Force http test to 30 mins interval for only one host
by vadud3＠gmail.com 20 Feb '12

20 Feb '12

How do I force xymon server 4.2.3 to do http test in 30 mins interval for one host only? We are asked not to probe this client with any faster frequency for some odd reason. I can only think of a ext script to do that. Is there a way xymon can do that natively? bbtest-net with --test-untagged and then a separate ext script with bbtest-net --timeout=30m for this particular host with NET:foo won't work. Since it is not changing the frequency of the test. I don't see any other option in ./bbtest-net --help Thanks -- Asif Iqbal PGP Key: 0xE62693C5 KeyServer: pgp.mit.edu A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

Thanks Steve. I hope submitting patches can be made easier through SourceForge in the future. But I will let my college Gudmo decide how he goes about this since he is the one currently developing and maintaining the script. Until then post patches here or send directly to me or Gudmo. -Svenni On Sat, Feb 18, 2012 at 6:24 PM, Svenni <sveinng at gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks Steve. > > I hope submitting patches can be made easier through SourceForge in the > future.

Include transfer of file contents to Xymon server for FILE check
by josh＠imaginenetworksllc.com 18 Feb '12

18 Feb '12

On the server I currently have a simple check to see if this file exists. I know if this file exists that there is a power outage somewhere. HOST=host.imaginenetworksllc.com FILE /opt/noticeofpowerfailure red noexist What I would like to do is include the contents of said text file to the server so when I click on the status it shows up in my browser. It is just text in the file. Is this possible? Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373

some data isn't stored in RRDs unless --debug option used for rrd-data, rrd-status workers
by tomg＠mcclatchyinteractive.com 17 Feb '12

17 Feb '12

Not sure if this is a bug or just something weird in our environment, but I've run into a situation where some bits of data aren't being stored in their RRD files, causing small & big gaps in the trend charts. However, if I add the --debug switch to the rrd-data and rrd-status workers in the tasks.cfg file, the problem seems goes away. Has anyone else observed this? I'm running xymon 4.37, rrdtool-1.2.27, and the OS is centos 5.7 with kernel 2.6.18-274.17.1.el5PAE. I'll be glad to provide more details, back traces, etc. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Tom
