[Xymon] Xymondash issues

[John Alexander]

Hi Christian,

Thanks for the reply.  Here is my wget post
wget http://xymon.imasneezer.com/xymondash/cgi/xymon-ack 
--post-data="number=814407&msg=workingit&host=mini01.imasneezer.com&test=conn"

I see that xymon-ack is only looking for number, msg, host, and test in 
the post.  This follows the web console 400 error that I'm seeing when I 
try to ack the alert.
