What if you add "testip"?

 Hi all,****

** **

I have databases and webpages in my hosts.cfg like this..****

**0.0.0.0     **   Oracle_Enterprise_Manager # prefer noping noconn
https://ictoem01.stanwell.com:7801/em/console  # Obviously a web page****

**0.0.0.0           **soapro # prefer noconn  #  This is an oracle
database which I have tests sent to.****

What I find is that even with noconn, it still attempts to resolve the
server name ie Oracle_Enterprise_Manager****

** **

I have managed to fix this by modifying xymonnet.c on line 839****

From this…****

** **

if (!h->testip && (dnsmethod != IP_ONLY))
add_host_to_dns_queue(h->hostname);****

** **

to this****

** **

if (!h->testip && !h->noconn && (dnsmethod != IP_ONLY))
add_host_to_dns_queue(h->hostname);****

** **

Any comments or possible breaking of Xymon??****

** **

If my interpretaion is what is expected for the noconn test maybe Henrik
could put this in as a bug fix  J****

Thanks****
