<font size="-1">I take a slightly different approach. Instead of
leaving all the defaults active and trying to hide certain
columns, I use the 'group-only' option in my hosts.cfg file to
only display the columns that I want to see for certain lists of
hosts. This way I can statically add/remove columns as desired.
It works great for lists of hosts that I'm only pinging or
checking for http uptime. It also gives me an easy way to move
the columns around to display in the order that I prefer. I also
have my stuff sorted using the 'page' option which keeps things
even more organized.<br>

Have been using Xymon since BB, then Hobbit days...recently upgraded to
4.3.30 and moved/replaced the main host it was running on.
To the point, I have everything working, but... on the main display, I
have getting columns for "files" and "ports".
More to the point, previously this worked. I have an entry at the TOP
of the hosts.cfg file that looks like this:
# hosts.cfg file
.default. NOCOLUMNS:ports,files
199.33.251.50 joshua.judahnet.net # conn dns ntp bbd smtp ssh
199.33.251.52 ezekiel.judahnet.net # conn dns ntp smtp ssh
And it worked..
I have tried changing that line to
.default. #NOCOLUMNS:ports,files
OR
0.0.0.0. .default. #NOCOLUMNS:ports,files
OR
0.0.0.0. .default. NOCOLUMNS:ports,files
None of them work...
I can append on the END of all the individual HOSTS lines
"NOCOLUMNS:ports,files"... and that works...
What am I doing wrong with default section ?
Jim
