Two questions:
Is there anyone for whom this test is _not_ filling up the error log on
their smtp server?
If I edit the native protocol.cfg, am I correct that I'll need to
replace
protocols.cfg with each code update?
One option here is to place your edits in a separate file included at the
top.
Dang. I hadn't thought of that. I've now done this and the new test definitions behave as expected.
My first question, however, remains unanswered.
Is there anyone using the SMTP test for whom the test is _not_ generating smtp 50X error results?
Why is the xymon protocol test sending a blatantly invalid command "mail\r\n" to the smtp server?
The smtp verb MAIL must be followed with something to mail. Xymonnet isn't considering the response to this "send" string, only the response the smtp server gives to the initial connection. Where is the benefit of sending anything other than a "quit\r\n" to politely close the connection and free the smtp server-resources?
