[smokeping-users] Re: Whats happening ??

[Warrick FitzGerald]

All I did was add one valid host to the default config file, so it complains
about the bogus one obviously but not the valid URL

My config file looks like this  (see below)

Where I have added a valid url www.LiveTechnology.com

which does resolve on the server.

I'm not sure if it is rude to attache files on a list like this, could
someone pls let me know if I would be irritating someone if I attached some
of my config files ?

Thanks
Warrick

Config file starts here

menu = UCL
title = UCL
host = www.ucl-abc.acc.uk

++ USA

menu = North America
title =North American Connectivity

+++ MIT

menu = LT
title = LiveTechnology
host = www.livetechnology.com

+++ IU

menu = IU
title = Indiana University
host = www.iu.ali

+++ UCB

menu = U. C. Berkeley
title = U. C. Berkeley Webserver
host = www.berkly.udi

+++ UCSD

menu = U. C. San Diego
title = U. C. San Diego Webserver
host = www.ucsdddar.art
