Windows tests go purple if server is listed twice.
A while back I create a special page with only a subset of the regular tests listed. Just the result for conn mostly. This was no problem until I had to add Windows servers to it. I can add a Linux box under "group-only conn Linux" and that does not affect the tests displayed on the other pages. However if I add a Windows server under "group-only conn Windows" tests like dns and ftp do not update and eventually go purple. Any results received from the Windows client are unaffected.
It doesn't seem to matter if the Windows server has a client on it or not.
XYMon version: 4.3.28 Server OS: CentOS 7
Windows client: BBWin 0.13 (not all Windows servers have the client)

Hi Stephen,
do you have the same server line in your new page, or do you add the line with the "noconn" for the server? I always ensure that i have only one line per server with all the flags like conn and ftp, and all other occurences with 0.0.0.0 servername # noconn so it cannot conflict with different settings.
