Agreed. xymonnet isn't doing a deep examination of the response, and isn't
testing against a matrix of possibilities. A few simple things might be
able to be added as a simple "httpcipher=" sort of thing, but our 'http'
syntax is already rather scarily overloaded and I'm not sure it's quite
the best solution there.
I agree. Certificate verification and validation is a complex subject
and shouldn't be crammed into the HTTP tests. It ought to be handled in
an ext script which meets your business needs.
Do things because you should, not just because you can.
