Running xymon 4.2.3

Why am I getting the "Failed" line? What is the "include list"?

Thanks

Robert

Josh,

You are correct the host is not on the top page

A snippet of my bb-host is as follows.

	page MathNet7 WEB Servers
	group-compress <font size="+1">WEB Servers</font>
	128.210.003.166 galileo.math.purdue.edu      # prefer \
	ntp ssh \

so not sure how this fits in to why it is not working?

Thanks

Robert

Steve.

I looked at my history and I had the command with the FQDN and it did not work.

But it does work now with the FQDN.

Thanks for pointing this out.

And that has to match what the client is sending as its host name. Right.

In the generic case, you are right (well, bb-hosts, hobbit-alerts,cfg and 
hostname provided to hobbitd_alert --test should agree), in the specific case 
the FQDN is used in bb-hosts and hobbit-alerts.cfg.
