[Xymon] BBWin 0.12 and disk use

I know that I was never able to get the windows client to work properly with the "centralized configuration", and instead opted to just modify the bbwin.cfg file in the \etc directory of the installation. I also ensured that when I installed the bbwin client, I put it in a folder with no spaces (c:\bbwin instead of c:\program files\bbwin), as that seemed to cause some issues with the logging function or the externals (I can't remember which now).

Ah, that make sense, but the default entry is at the bottom, sigh, but it isn't using those either - it goes yellow on 85%, not 90:

DEFAULT
        # These are the built-in defaults.
        UP      1h
        LOAD    5.0 10.0
        DISK    * 90 95
        MEMPHYS 100 101
        MEMSWAP 50 80
        MEMACT  90 97


This default 90% disk entry works with linux clients but not with the windows one.

thanks.
