Henrik,

Thanks for the quick repsonse.  I applied the patch, verified the patch code
was applied, remade  and reinstalled.  It doesn't appear to be working.  The
DESCR tag is still being picked up.
I verified USEDESCRASCOMMENT="N" in xymonserver.cfg.

In htmllog.c I changed the static int usedescrascomment = 1; to 0 and make;
make install.  The DECR tag does not show up as expected.
I wonder if the xgetenv isn't working as expected.

Scott

I'd still like to see an option for xymongen to turn off this behavior
or
just revert back to the old behavior in a future release (hint hint ;)).
Could you try out this patch ? It should apply to all 4.3.x versions.
Apply with

 cd xymon-4.3.3
 patch -p0 < /tmp/commentdisplay.diff

then run "make; make install"

After installing the new binaries, you can turn off the unwanted behaviour
by adding

 USEDESCRASCOMMENT="N"

in xymonserver.cfg .


Please let me know if this works OK.


Regards,
Henrik
