Pile of  beginner questions here:

1) if I have two http tests for one server, as in
       10.0.1.2  myserver.example.com  #
http://myserver.example.com/link1 http://myserver.example.com/link2
do I need to put a separate badhttp after each test or can I just put
one at the end?

2) If a network test fails it is repeated at short intervals, IIRC
it's every minute.  If I set badhttp:1:2:4 , is it counting four
1-minute intervals or four 5-minute xymon test intervals?

3) Is there a way to set a default for all http tests and just
override for a few servers? We'll want almost all our servers to wait
a few minutes before alerting

and 4) do I need a trailing / on the url?

thanks much
Betsy
