Oh nice! Didn't think to hover.. while that's actually great and all it is indeed a training issue and will probably freak out the public when I upgrade lol.

Thanks for the push.. I actually did the proper thing and man'd the new xymonserver.cfg and lo and behold there's the HOSTPOPUP option.

I've got a lot of new reading to do with the 4.3.7 version coming from 4.3.0 :)

I thought that new default behaviour is, when you hold the mouse above a client, the comment will appear (I thought 'hover').

That would address the fact that the screen is easily filled with a FQDN-host + check1 + ... + checkn

I thought it is configurable.

2011/12/15 Tom Moore <Tom.Moore at sas.com<mailto:Tom.Moore at sas.com>> Did this regress? In 4.3.7 I can't seem to get the COMMENT tag to show up anymore. Works fine on older version 4.3.0. Does anyone have these showing successfully?

example entry:

xx.xx.xx.xx server.xxx.sas.com<http://server.xxx.sas.com> # CLIENT:server ssh COMMENT:"APP #1" prefer

Doesn't show "APP #1" on the GUI like it used to.

Ok, I'm probably being dense.. but I can't seem to find out how to disable.. I tried the simple HOSTPOPUP="" in the xymonserver.cfg, but that just disables the popup. How to get the comments back on the page? The xymonserver.cfg manpage just states this, but not *how" to disable

if pop-up's have been disabled, then the COMMENT value is displayed next to the hostname on the webpages. Default: CDI
