BTW, one of the pages that did come up on the first page when I googled xymon iax2 test was http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Hobbit so I updated this page (names, links, etc.). I don't know how to rename it, but hopefully the admin will see it needs renaming.
Kind regards,

Hi xymonton.org / theshire administrator, (cc list)
I googled for: monitors:asterisk-iax2
This was the 3rd results:
www.xymonton.org/monitors:asterisk-iax2
Block <https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=monitors%3Aasterisk-iax2&ie=utf-8&oe=utf- 8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a#> all www.xymonton.org results A description for this result is not available because of this site's robots.txt <https://www.xymonton.org/robots.txt> - learn <https://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=156449> more. [https://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=156449]
I find that xymonton.org does not usually come up [high] in Google results. The above may be one reason. For example, it does not come up in the first 5 pages of results (and no-one is likely to look further than that) if I google for: xymon iax2 test which is what I originally googled for until I found this page: http://lists.xymon.com/oldarchive/2008/09/msg00109.html with a link to: http://www.trantor.org/theshire/doku.php/monitors:asterisk-iax2 I clicked that page, and got:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /index.php/home/http/skriv.org/main/www/theshire/doku.php/monitors:asterisk- iax2 on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
So then, I issued the first google query above to find the correct link.
It would help xymon if xymonton.org came up prominently in the results of relevant search queries. Not to mention, helping existing xymon users searching for add-ons! ;) And I think the first two things that might help with this are (a) changing robots.txt; and (b) fixing all the links like the trantor.org link above to redirect to the appropriate page on xymonton.org. Given that the URL format is the same, I don't suppose this is too difficult to achieve. If you would like any help with this, let me and / or the xymon list know what software you are using and I'm sure we will do our best to assist.
Kind regards,
Sebastian A
