Example 1

page Windows Windows Hosts

group Windows Hosts

0.0.0.0       dns1.example.com # noconn
0.0.0.0       dns1.example.com # noconn

page dns DNS Servers

group-only dns Internal DNS Servers

0.0.0.0       dns1.example.com # dns
0.0.0.0       dns1.example.com # dns

----
With Example 1 bb-hosts file I get my windows page with the conn and dns tests showing up.

Example 2

page dns DNS Servers

group-only dns Internal DNS Servers

0.0.0.0       dns1.example.com # noconn
0.0.0.0       dns1.example.com # noconn

page Windows Windows Hosts

group Windows Hosts

0.0.0.0       dns1.example.com # dns
0.0.0.0       dns1.example.com # dns

With Example 2 bb-hosts file I get my windows page with only the dns test showing up.  The conn test does not appear (well it went purple since it stopped working).

The dns test shows up correctly on both examples on the DNS page.

Is this a bug?  Do I need to put duplicate hosts lower in the bb-hosts file?

Thanks

Craig

You may want to try:

group Windows Hosts
0.0.0.0       dns1.example.com # prefer dns
0.0.0.0       dns1.example.com # prefer dns

Yes, the "prefer" option fixes my issue.

Thanks
