I remember that I had to add '--tooltips=never' to the line
XYMONGENOPTS=... in xymonserver.cfg to make it work.
Otherwise the comment was only visible when hovering over the server name.

I had it working since 4.3.17 but I don't know if IE could be an issue here.

Just checked my local installation with XYmon 4.3.29 and it is also
displayed next to the server name in IE (11).
Edge should work as it is based on Chromium.

 ?? Hi,

 ??? I checked the man page and what you say is "supposed" to work, however
I see no comment that I put in the hosts file on the display page. IE
does not
seem to work. I tried both with quotes and then no white spaces,,, without
quotes.
 ?? I am using version 4.3.28

Hi Frank,

you might want to take a look at "COMMENT" which might already do what
you want.

A line in your hosts.cfg would then look like this:

208.145.18.16?? frank.cronomagic.biz # COMMENT:"for_my_machine"
NOCOLUMNS:files,inode,info

and then your server would be displayed like this:

frank.cronomagic.biz (for_my_machine) Test1 Test2 etc.

 ???? Hi everyone,

 ??????? I have a request for a new feature:

On the hosts,cfg page, there should be a place to the right of the FQDN
for a description field.
This field should show up on the main xymon page.

Example:

 ??????? IP????????????????????? FQDN Description
208.145.18.16 ? frank.cronomagic.biz??? for_my_machine?? #
NOCOLUMNS:files,inode,info

And this should display on the main page.
