Re: Trying to use both hostheader and checksum

[Lukasz Piwowarek]

Callum,

What version of Monit are you running? Im sitting here on 5.0.3 and hostheader is not supported I think.

I also saw a thread that in version 5.1.0 the support for this function was broken and had to be patched - consider compiling latest release from source and give that a try.

Thanks for the reply Lukasz.

with is a noise keyword AFAIK:

You can use noise keywords like 'if', `and', `with(in)', `has', `using',
'use', 'on(ly)', `usage' and `program(s)' anywhere in an entry to make
it resemble English. They're ignored, but can make entries much easier
to read at a glance. The punctuation characters ';' ',' and '=' are also
ignored. Keywords are case insensitive.

Unless I'm missing something, your suggested syntax is therefore the
same as what I have tried. Or did I misunderstand?

Cheers - Callum.
