Xymon 4.3.29 scheduling and F30
Hi all,
Just to give everyone an update, I have a few more patches I'm still looking at, but I mostly wanted to wait until I get a chance to test compile fixes on Fedora 30 final, which should drop today or tomorrow.
There are still a number of compile warnings generally (mostly char mismatch warnings), but if you know of compile issues on other platforms specifically, it would be helpful if you could run a quick test on the latest 4.3.29 snapshot to see if it's resolved. The latest snap is available at https://sourceforge.net/p/xymon/code/HEAD/tree/branches/4.3.29/ in the upper right.
Thanks, -jc
Japheth, I submitted some patches a month ago for Xymon that I do not see in the current 4.3.29 r8059 snapshot. Attached is a context diff file for my patches for the current snapshot. Please consider adding them to the release, and let me know if you have any questions about them.

Still looking at a few of those. I'm a bit torn on removing the protocol dialog for SMTP/SMTPS, but given that we don't have a great way to enact pauses at the moment (a la 'expect'), I think it may be for the best.

Japheth, Regarding the SMTP/SMTPS protocol tests, my patch update changes the "mail" command to "helo localhost" to provide the proper greeting dialog to the SMTP server. You can see this yourself easily with the telnet command:
telnet mailhost 25 Trying NNN.NNN.NNN.NNN... Connected to mailhost. Escape character is '^]'. 220 mailhost.mydomain.com Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service ready at Tue, 30 Apr 2019 10:03:17 -0600 mail 503 5.5.2 Send hello first helo localhost 250 mailhost.mydomain.com Hello [NNN.NNN.NNN.NNN] quit 221 2.0.0 Service closing transmission channel Connection closed by foreign host.
As you can see above, the "mail" command is not accepted, at least not without saying hello first.
The SMTP test results in Xymon will then show the results of the "helo localhost" as well:
cat ~xymon/data/logs/mailhost.smtp green <!-- [flags:OrdastLe] --> Tue Apr 30 09:56:37 2019 smtp ok
Service smtp on mailhost is OK (up)
220 mailhost.mydomain.com Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service ready at Tue, 30 Apr 2019 09:56:39 -0600 250 mailhost.mydomain.com Hello [NNN.NNN.NNN.NNN] 221 2.0.0 Service closing transmission channel
Seconds: 0.000757000
Message received from NNN.NNN.NNN.NNN Status unchanged in 28 days, 23 hours, 3 minutes

My apologies. For some reason, I *completely* misread this one. Looking back, I know there had been discussion about the SMTP conversation before, but I can't find a good reason why we weren't sending EHLO at all, even if we weren't pausing for the response first (technically a protocol violation).
There's this: https://lists.xymon.com/archive/2005-December/004834.html but that's about it.
It seems to work fine in testing so far, so I'll go ahead and add this in. Probably going to go with EHLO, however, so as to return a useful full list of the destination server's offered features.
Thanks,

Hi,
I also have some AIX related patches. I will clean them up resend them to the mailing list this evening.

I'm currently working on making Debian's official xymon package build with 4.3.29 r8060.
So far I noticed these minor issue:
client/xymonclient-unixware.sh misses the executable bits (compared to all other client/xymonclient-*.sh). This is not an issue as there seems to be a chmod run at build time, but we use git for packaging and after a build, client/xymonclient-unixware.sh is marked as modified:
~/hobbit/xymon → git st On branch 4.3.29-beta Changes not staged for commit: (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
modified: client/xymonclient-unixware.shno changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a") ~/hobbit/xymon → git diff diff --git a/client/xymonclient-unixware.sh b/client/xymonclient-unixware.sh old mode 100644 new mode 100755 ~/hobbit/xymon →
And lintian also found a spelling error in a man page:
I: xymon: spelling-error-in-manpage usr/share/man/man5/alerts.cfg.5.gz scritps scripts
So far these are all (and minor) issues I found at build-time — besides the compile time warnings you've already mentioned..
