Works great Jeremy...just missing the <html></html> tags. The ssh piece could bite you for short hostnames (which I should stop putting in my host configs).

What I do is to leave the hostname alone, but create a "notes" file for each hostname I want to access. These files go in XYMONNOTESDIR (defined in xymonserver.cfg), as standard HTML files. For each of my servers I've an ssh:// link to the server and http:// to the iLO, plus a few direct links to useful things within Xymon.
To access notes, just click on the hostname. If the notes file exists, it will be hotlinked.
Creating the notes files could be automated, but I don't have enough hosts to make it worthwhile, so I've just done it manually. You can also specify a HOSTDOCURL in xymonserver.cfg that includes a script to run, and have the notes pages dynamically created based on the hostnames.
I've done a hybrid solution. I have a generic host type notes file for a group of hosts, and I create symbolic links to each hostname that points to the generic file. Within the notes file, I use some javascript-fu to dynamically generate the details on-the-fly.
For anyone interested in giving it a try, I'll append the HTML file below.

I'm using the below to turn my hostnames into hyperlinks to login to each server (which works great):
10.10.10.10 Hostname # NAME:"<a href=ssh://root at 10.10.10.10<mailto:root at 10.10.10.10>>Displayed Hostname</a>"
Problem is, it now uses this ugly html string as the hostname in the title of my graphs. So it displays "<a href=ssh://root... > Disk Utilization", etc. as the title... which is obviously not pretty. Any thoughts on how to fix this?
By the way, it also changes the displayed hostname in several other places which I managed to fix by changing the variable &XYMWEBHOST to &XMH_HOSTNAME in several of the $xymon/server/web/*_header files...
Thank you!
