This is Great news Henrik!

Thank you very much, for the fix! I will apply it to the 4.3.4 that we are
going to install very soon.

This makes the critical system page much more valuable.

Regards, Peter

After years of Xymon usage, I start to use the Critical Systems view. I
have setup a BBGENOPTS to use a docurl. I expect this URL to show up on
the
Critical Systems view.
BBGENOPTS (or XYMONGENOPTS in 4.3.x) is not used for the Critical Systems
view, since this setting only provides some default options for the
"xymongen" utility. And the Critical Systems view is generated by another
tool (criticalview.cgi).

It's something that I forgot to handle in the Critical systems view.

I've attached a patch that will be included in Xymon 4.3.5. It deprecates
the "docurl" option for xymongen, and replaces it with a new HOSTDOCURL
setting in xymonserver.cfg with the same function. This setting is also
used by the Critical Systems view (and other tools). So it should work as
you would expect.

Henrik
