Not sure if this is the right venue for posting feature requests, but it would be useful if html which is generated by programs specified unique html classes wherever possible to allow CSS styling. an example, for Information Tables:
*** web/csvinfo.c 2017-06-19 14:14:13.186316715 -0500 --- web/csvinfo.c.new 2017-06-19 14:11:16.385617041 -0500
*** 185,191 **** sethostenv(wantedname, "", "", colorname(bgcolor), NULL); headfoot(stdout, hffile, "", "header", bgcolor);
! printf("<table align=center border=1 summary=\"Information table\">\n");
for (i=0; (headers[i]); i++) {
printf("<tr>\n");
--- 185,191 ---- sethostenv(wantedname, "", "", colorname(bgcolor), NULL); headfoot(stdout, hffile, "", "header", bgcolor);
! printf("<table class=\"informationTable\" align=center border=1 summary=\"Information table\">\n");
for (i=0; (headers[i]); i++) {
printf("<tr>\n");
which would permit one to specify in file: gifs/xymonbody.css
table.informationTable td { margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em }
to add a little spacing within the table cells around the text.

Well it was working HI!!Here is an except from my hosts.cfg
EXAMPLE:
192.168.55.55 eth0:0
192.168.2.56 voip1.example.com (eth0) but voip1 is actually mapped on the DNS to eth0:0
I have xymon-client starting up /home/xymon/runclient.sh --hostname= voip1.example.com
Up till now everything runs ok. (I have not tried a failover, as I just wanted to get it to work).
Probably report as a ghost when it fails over.
When I add this, then I get ghost reports: Weird, xymon-server reports itself as one of the ghosts.
192.168.2.56 voip1-2.example.com (eth0 on primary)
192.168.2.57 voip1-3.example.com (eth0 on secondary)

Just a nudge, consider what I said about monitoring both servers all the time. Otherwise, if one server dies, but xymon shows all green, you won't know there is a problem until the second server dies too.

When I say xymon, I mean the xymon-client. The xymon-server is on a different machine.

Hi,
I am doing something that I don't think has been done with xymonbefore. We are running asterisk on a failover heartbeat system. When the failover occurs heartbeat shuts down everything on the primary server and xymon goes nuts. So I set up heartbeat to stop xymon when it shuts everything else down. Now when the "floating IP" goes to the secondary server, the secondary starts up all the services and I set it up for xymon to start too. I was thinking would be a great idea if I could bind xymon to the floating IP the same way I do it for the rest of the services. So far during tests it seems to be working out ok without the binding, but may be necessary after all.
When you say "xymon" do you mean xymon-client or are you running the xymon server components on this redundant system?
It seems to me that running the monitoring system on the same system that you are monitoring is likely to lead to problems (ie, on total system failure you won't be told about it). I would suggest to run the monitoring on a 3rd server, which is stand-alone from this pair. Xymon doesn't care which IP address the client reports originate from, as long as the name is correct.
However, I would advise to have both systems report status individually, with their own names, then you can see the status of each server in the pair. In order to alert and see the status of the services provided by the pair, then you can use combined status such as procs on serverA OR procs on serverB = procs green for Service and so on.
Hope this helps...
