[Xymon] Bug in findhost ?

Hi,


I have troubles using the findhost feature with the "Jump to page" box 
checked. On my xymon server the result URL is using localhost instead of 
my xymon server's FQDN.

This problem seems to be reproducible on www.xymon.com:
- go to https://www.xymon.com/xymon-cgi/findhost.sh
- enter "ipgw" in the search field
- hit the search button
- you're redirected towards http://vxymon.hswn.dk/services/#ipgw.hswn.dk

Host vxymon.hswn.dk doesn't exist. On my system it's redirecting to 
http://localhost.

2 questions:
- why is the xymon server hostname changing and is there a place to 
configure it for findhost's answer ?
- why is the answer redirecting to http when the query was done on a 
https URL ?


I looked into findhost.c but didn't have enough time to understand how 
all of this works.


Cheers,
Francois.
