[Xymon] Non host based custom test

[Root, Paul]

Does it show up in ghost clients?

Have you used tcpdump to confirm that the message is getting to your server?

Subject: [Xymon] Non host based custom test

We wrote a custom test that monitors the results of all our email servers reputations.
We don't want to break the test apart by individual mail server, but rather, have one dot in xymon for the combined reputation of all our mail servers.
Is it possible to create a "row" to send this status message to?

Added the following to hosts.cfg
{code}
page Mail Mail
0.0.0.0         Mail # noconn
{code}

Which created the Page but not a host (row)

Sent the following status
{code}
echo  /usr/lib64/xymon/server/bin/bb localhost "status Mail.Reputation yellow `/bin/date`

${msg}
"
{code}
but still don't no host/row appears

Suggestions?
