Given that most of the information is in hosts.cfg, I would think you could
script your report generation easily enough using perl or perhaps even awk.

A script could also pick up the contents of any notes files, if they tended
to contain useful descriptive information; and you could format it any way
they wanted, even as a spreadsheet.

Good morning, all.

I've got a request from my security and monitoring team for a way to
export a list of all configured clients along with their IP addresses and
either descriptions or page/subpage locations.

Other than providing them with a copy of hosts.cfg on a regular basis,
I've been unsuccessful in locating a way to do so (either in the
documentation/man pages, mailing list archives or just good old Google).

Is there a method to do so from the Xymon interface? Maybe a plugin that
I'm not, yet, aware of?
