[Xymon] Hostname validation (was Re: Xymon 4.3.29 Released - Important Security Update)

[Tom Schmidt (tschmidt)]

I likewise see one more issue with 4.3.29 that I am trying to correct.  The xymonnet RPC check is not displaying the RPC test summary correctly at the top of the svcstatus report.  It should look like this:

	Mon Apr 1 10:53:02 2019 rpc ok,

	green Service rpcbind (ID: 100000) found on port 111
	green Service ypbind (ID: 100007) found on port 1013

	Command: rpcinfo -p 1.2.3.4 2>&1

Instead, it is getting truncated like this:

	Thu Aug 8 10:42:07 2019 rpc ok,

	green S

	Command: rpcinfo -p 1.2.3.4 2>&1

The truncation is causing any red/yellow/green RPC checks to not show properly at the top of the svcstatus report.

Sorry - stealing the subject - could I ask to hold fire with 4.3.30 for a little while. There still seems to be a problem with graph titles when using 'exec:'. I'm just trying to track it down now (looks like an extra double-quote has crept in somewhere). Thanks.
