Hi,

I'm using Xymon 4.3.0-0.beta2 et I want to disable the port test.
Actually it doesn't appear but the check isn't disable. One of my xymon client had a lot of connections* and the scan create huge logs dans make load sometime.

I tried  :
# bb 127.0.0.1 "drop [HOSTNAME] port"

On the xymon server but nothing happens :( Is it possible to completely disable it?

(*) something like :
# netstat -laptn | wc -l
31471
And it's a calm day.

Hello

Edit your client ~hobbit/client/bin/hobbitclient-OS.sh file (if linux: hobbitclient-linux.sh) then search "[ports]"  section and drop the following lines : 
echo "[ports]"
# Bug in RedHat's netstat spews annoying error messages.
netstat -ant 2>/dev/null

(If it is xymon, replace hobbit by xymon.)

then restart hobbit-client.
