Yes, that's how I remove data from time to time, but I was hoping there would be a report that displays via the webpage, similar to the ghostlist.sh

Go to your hostdata directory. It will have a directory for each machine. You can rm -rf Cam* there.
Could be more in hist and rrd

Ok, let me ask the question a little different way. Is there a way to view a list of old hostnames that are not listed in the hosts.cfg file but the server still has old logs stored?

probably need to use a quick command line 'for' loop. Something
like:
for Host in Cam{1..12}; do
./xymon 127.0.0.1 "drop $Host"
done
You also want to remove the other history info as well but I'd
have to go find that.

Is there a way to drop all host data for multiple hosts using a

data, but I
have a long list of IP Cameras that I changed in my hosts file
and
instead of dropping each individual hostname I'd like to drop
all hosts
that start with 'Cam'. I attempted this but it didn't remove
anything.
./xymon 127.0.0.1 "drop Cam*"
