The test is not in the hosts.cfg file.

group Servers
  10.10.19.142   cream      # bbd http://cream/ ntp ssh
  10.10.19.80    sparky     # http://www.pettefar.com log files ntp ssh:922
  10.10.19.31    bento      # log ntp ssh


Xymon page is at http://ssh.pettefar.de:1984/xymon/ and we'd like the
the "ports" column to be removed.

Regards,

Nick Pettefar
