Are there any recommended patches or a patch set that I should apply to 
the 4.3 beta before I test it?  I'm about to upgrade one of my xymon 
4.2.3 installs to test the new beta and figured I'd ask.

There are a few changes, the worst bug is probably the one that makes
xymongrep (bbhostgrep) not return anything at all. Another bug caused
hostname-matching to fail if you had a list of hostnames where one
hostname was a substring of another - this was present also in 4.2.x.

There are some compile-fixes for compiling without LDAP support, and
on Solaris.

You could check-out the current 4.3 branch from the SVN repository,
but I've put a patch-file up for download on 
http://www.hswn.dk/~henrik/post-beta3.diff.gz

Since the number of bug-reports for beta-3 has been so low, I think
I'll do the 4.3.0 release before Christmas.


Regards,
Henrik

Sounds good, I checked out the svn branch and used it.  My server didn't 
explode after the upgrade, so so far so good.

First question:  bbd--should this test/column still be around?

And where can I find more info on this new feature:

* Data going into graphs can now be used to alter a status,
   e.g. to trigger an alert from the response time of a network
   service.

I decided to keep it, since tcp port 1984 is officially
registered to the "bb" service (see 
http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers ).

In the analysis.cfg man-page (see the "DS - RRD based status override"
section), also available at
