Is it possible to put an <img src> tag in the XYMONLOGO variable to 
display an actual logo instead of just text?  I've tried a few different 
ways, but it doesn't appear to work.

I placed my logo file in the $XYMON/gifs directory, and then used
"http://<my.xymon.server>/xymon/gifs/<filename>"; in the img src" tag.

Hi Michael,

 
There is what I do, I custom the logo for our company.

 
Upload file xymon.png to /usr/lib/xymon/server/www/gifs

Change security to : chown xymon:xymon xymon.png

 
You need to edit /usr/lib/xymon/server/web/*_header

nano /usr/lib/xymon/server/web/*_header

 
Where you see $XYMONLOGO change to this line.

<FONT FACE="Arial, Helvetica" SIZE="+1"
COLOR="silver"><B>&XYMONLOGO</B></FONT>

 
<img src="&XYMONSKIN/xymon.png" alt="Xymon logo" />

 
You need to change all file header.

 
David

David, that's complete overkill, and could very well be undone by the next
update to the software.

After uploading the image, all you have to do is edit one
file...xymonserver.cfg...and change the "XYMONLOGO" variable.

You don't even need to overwrite the original logo (if there is one) when
you upload the new logo file, nor do you have to rename the file that you
uploaded.

Thank you for the reponse David, but that seems to be more work than I needed to do.  A answer was provided by someone already that fixed my issue,  just simply put the fully qualified URL to the image in XYMONLOGO variable the xymonserver.cfg file.  When I had tried it, I failed to fully qualify the location of the image I used absolute paths, and the one time I did try to fully qualify it, I pathed it incorrectly.

The easy fix was to set the XYMONLOGO variable to "<img src=http://myhost.com/xymon/gifs/mylogo.png">;  and it worked.  It wasn't necessary to change any of the header pages.
