John, Thank you, you were correct, it needs the space between the "#" and "NOCOLUMNS"
0.0.0.0 .default. #NOCOLUMNS:files,ports
Works great.
Really appreciate the help folks !

Hello Jim,
0.0.0.0 .default. # NOCOLUMNS:procs,ports,clientlog,files ssldays=14 Is working for me on 4.3.30 I have it on top of the hosts.cfg file
Yes, likewise the format I have is different from those shown by the OP. Ours starts with: 0.0.0.0 .default. # NOCOLUMNS:bbd,...
Perhaps it's just the space between the '#' and 'NOCOLUMNS' that is required.

This is doubtless a completely STUPID question.
Have been using Xymon since BB, then Hobbit days...recently upgraded to 4.3.30 and moved/replaced the main host it was running on.
To the point, I have everything working, but... on the main display, I have getting columns for "files" and "ports".
More to the point, previously this worked. I have an entry at the TOP of the hosts.cfg file that looks like this:
hosts.cfg file
.default. NOCOLUMNS:ports,files 199.33.251.50 joshua.judahnet.net # conn dns ntp bbd smtp ssh 199.33.251.52 ezekiel.judahnet.net # conn dns ntp smtp ssh
And it worked.. I have tried changing that line to .default. #NOCOLUMNS:ports,files OR 0.0.0.0. .default. #NOCOLUMNS:ports,files OR 0.0.0.0. .default. NOCOLUMNS:ports,files
None of them work...
I can append on the END of all the individual HOSTS lines "NOCOLUMNS:ports,files"... and that works...
What am I doing wrong with default section ?
