Hi,

According to my logs, the http check is realized by the Xymon server 
(xymonnet part as far as I remember).

Hello,

I do often things like that (on hosts.d/mytest.cfg)

  172.16.y.xxx    host31      \
    #http://www.toto.com=/172.16.y.xxx

but recently on new hosts, this test is red but if i do that (on the
host to check)

  curl -sIL -H "Host: www.toto.com" "http://localhost";

all is ok


So does the test is start from the server ?

1/ If yes, is there a way to execute the same test in localhost ? It's
because the only open ports from Xymon Serveur to host are
  * tcp/22
  * icmp

And there's no way to open more.

2/ if no what's wrong
