[Xymon] [EXT] Call for 4.3.29 Patches

[Tom Schmidt (tschmidt)]

I have one more patch to submit for the Xymon 4.3.29 for the xymonnet application.  The attached context diff file makes these changes:

- If host is down, do not run rpcinfo or NTP tests on it.  Otherwise runtime can be very long (cmdtimeout times the number of hosts down that have an rpcinfo and/or NTP test)

- Change "xymonnet: Cannot resolve IP for host" from an error to a warning.  This then allows xymonnet check to not always be yellow when hostnames do not resolve in DNS. The host in the hosts.cfg file will still be marked as failing the conn test as before.

- Add --cmdtimeout option to the --help usage


Thanks...Tom

I have a few patches to submit as well.  Attached is a context diff file for my changes to the 4.3.28 source files.  Comments includes for most of the changes.

Hello all,

I'm pushing for a release of 4.3.29 relatively soon. I've been trying to go through the backlog to identify un-applied patches, but I know there are some that I'm missing. If you have build fixes or runtime changes that have not yet been put in in 4.3.29 already (see: 
https://nam01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsourceforge.net%2Fp%2Fxymon%2Fcode%2FHEAD%2Ftree%2Fbranches%2F4.3.29%2FChanges&data=02%7C01%7Ctschmidt%40micron.com%7C40feb9989dd94966d8f008d6b22af49f%7Cf38a5ecd28134862b11bac1d563c806f%7C0%7C0%7C636892294904732386&sdata=aE7E5XBovDee%2FIFl7Ec%2FSL3PQ7RTeNDM8zOEDTj8lKc%3D&reserved=0),
I'd appreciate if you could point them out.
