I'm not seeing any errors because I have not got it to run yet. I look at the files called by the rewriterules in the httpd.conf file and none of the files being referenced by a rewriterule is there? I'm trying to figure out where they are supposed to come from as they did not come as part of the 4.3.0 package. I am talking about the bb.html, bb2.html and just about all the others.
The RewriteRule's exist to support migrating from Big Brother or Hobbit (i.e. Xymon prior to the 4.3.0 release) without breaking stuff - most notably, people's bookmarks which point to the old-style "bb.html", "bb2.html" and "bbnk.html" webpages which no longer exist.
A rule like this one:
RewriteRule ^/xymon/bb2.html /xymon/nongreen.html [R=permanent,L]
means that IF the user requests the bb2.html file, he will automatically be redirected to the nongreen.html page (which will exist, when Xymon is running).
