Hi all,
Is Henrik or JC Cleaver still working on Xymon? I am still the maintainer of the packages on FreeBSD and have been crawling through the mailing list archives, Debian packages, etc and have accumulated a lot of patches that have never made it into a Xymon release. I'm aware there's an Alpha of 4.4 with IPv6 support and a lot of changes too, but it's very much unfinished last I saw (IPv6 for client-server but Xymonnet not refactored to be able to execute IPv6 tests IIRC...)
I'd like to light the fire again. Xymon is something special and I keep coming back to it. It's just the perfect amount of simplicity and power to make monitoring things easy.
I have privately converted the Xymon source repo to Git much like has been done at https://github.com/xymon-monitoring/ but I've preserved all the tags and backdated them properly. My own list of changes is growing:
Fixed buffer overflow in trends which causes it to stop showing graphs if you have too many
Fix FreeBSD graphing of vmstat/CPU utilization (has been broken for many years)
Custom graphs docs do not match reality -- you can't submit NCV or trends data to be processed into RRD files and then display them on any status page you want. I've fixed this; you can put custom graphs on any status page now, not just ones that already have graphs
added ALPN support to xymmonnet so you can create custom protocols to do things like test IMAP through Nginx HTTPS/443 port
WIP -- debugging DS rule processing in analysis.cfg which doesn't obey "first match" like everything else, hope to have this nailed down soon
Please reach out...
Mark
