Hey.
The 4.3.14 announcement mentioned a new headercheck tag was added...however, I can't find any doc on how to use it. I've grepped the entire source for "headercheck" in 4.3.15 and it comes back empty. I suspect this may be related to my xymonnet core dumps.

It is called "headermatch". If you put this on the entry in hosts.cfg, then HTTP content checks will also look at the HTTP headers.
The hosts.cfg(5) man-page has it.

It's amazing how much better looking for the correct thing helps :-). Don't know why this isn't sinking in...is there an example for using this with, say. post?
"post=newcolname;https://example.com/login;user=myid&password=mypass&locale=en_US;could not log on to the server"
where exactly would "headermatch" live?\
again...my brain is mush and not firing on all synapses ...
thx

just by itself. Like
0.0.0.0 www.example.com # noconn headermatch
"post=login;https://example.com/login;user=myid&password=mypass&locale=en_US;could
not log on to the server"
But note my other mail to you with a fix for the xymonnet crash. Didn't quite get it right the first time.

Until you mentioned it, I did not see it since Outlook is the opposite of useful...I dug it up and applied it. No core dumps so far. Tests appear to be working. Likely unrelated but I did notice some files in my tmp folder that didn't look quite right (http..status and frequenttest.) that I've not noticed before.
