[Xymon] 4.3.3 nongreen host.cfg DESCR tag issue

[Lee, Raymond]

Hi Scott,

This new behavior also plagued us when we upgraded from Hobbit 4.2.0 to Xymon 4.3.2.  I believe it affects more than just the nongreen.html page.  I think it also affects the Critical Systems and Reports pages.  Please see this thread for an explanation of the problem and the workaround:

I'd still like to see an option for xymongen to turn off this behavior or just revert back to the old behavior in a future release (hint hint ;)).

-Ray

Subject: [Xymon] 4.3.3 nongreen host.cfg DESCR tag issue

I've been testing the 4.3.3 version and stepped through an upgrade from version 4.2.3.  I have noticed a problem with the nongreen page displaying both the name and the DESCR tag from the hosts.cfg.  In the old version only the host name was displayed (no descr tag).  The descr tag is only showing up on the nongreen page. It doesn't show up on any other pages. Any thoughts on how to make the nongreen page not show the DESCR tag from the hosts.cfg?

Thanks,
