RE: bb-rep.sh & bb-snapshot.sh

[<R.Biesbroek (at) icts.utwente.nl>]

After debugging together with some colleagues, I found a solution for
this problem.

In the source code of report.c and snapshot.c (in the map ./web) there
is a declaration in the main function: "char htmldelim[20];". In the
same main function we can find: " sprintf(htmldelim, "xymonrep-%u-%u",
(int)getpid(), (unsigned int)getcurrenttime(NULL));"

Because the size of "char htmldelim[20];" is not sufficient enough
(requires around 25 or so) this process will crash. I changed this char
value into 100 and after a "make && make install" command the issue
seems to be resolved!
