Premature send.

I have 3 sites for which I've configured the ssh test in order to
validate that an SFTP service is answering.

This error status has popped up 10 times, today, at last 15 times
yesterday.

I'm running Xymon 4.3.27, installed via compiled source RPM from
terabithia on a Red Hat 6.6 system.

Good afternoon.

Recently, I've noted quite a few instances of Xymon going yellow for
the xymonnet test, with the following output:

Hi Mike,

Can you see if the following patch helps? There's definitely the output
bug (which this should fix), but it's also very curious that you're
seeing
so many post-open TCP errors. It seems like the previous logic should
have
caught this before that flag was set, which makes it all the more odd
that
false negative situations hadn't been noted before.

Ok...I'll just have to figure out how to add the patch to the rpmbuild
process. As soon as I figure it out and get it worked in, I'll let you
know how I make out.

Mike,

These can be used for testing, if you like:
