[Xymon] MAGMA XYMon Web GUI Admin Now Available!

[Larry Barber]

I've tried to install this on my test box and am not having much luck.

1. There is nothing in the www directory in the tarball, so I copied all
the .php files in the top directory to my xymon directory. That does not
work. I get a 404 whenever I try to access one of the pages, the message
has an untranslated $XYMONSERVERWWWURL in the URL it says it can't find.
2. You missed a couple of explicit references to /var/www in MAGMA.php,
these are referring to a .pl script that doesn't exist on my system.
3. You should probably warn people that copying over the contents of the
/etc/ directory will wipe out any changes they have made to xymonmenu.cfg.
4. Minor issue, you have a repeated "the" in managealerts line 65 and
managehosts line 223.

Thanks,
Larry Barber
