Curious if anyone out there has run into issues resulting from case sensitivity in hostnames (either self-report from the clientlog, or in hosts.cfg) or test names. Although I imagine this is fairly uncommon in the Linux/BSD world, I've seen AIX and Solaris systems with mixed-case hostnames, and I imagine users of BBWin can run into this a lot.
Have you had issues with graphs not displaying, or any mismatch from filesystem assets (like static-generated status HTML pages or notes) that become unavailable after a name change? Or analysis.cfg or custom xymondboard queries failing?
Looking at the PCRE->PCRE2 transition, there are a few places where case options are called out differently. If xymon were to canonically store/convert to lowercase internally that would help keep things cleaner, and also allow a lot of strcasecmp's in xtree lookups to become strcmp's.
