I'm running mon 0-99-2.6 on Debian woody.

My mon.cf has the following config for a remote web page:

watch paul
        service http
                description Paul's remote page
                interval 1m
                monitor http_t.monitor -l /var/log/mon/exodus_web -T 6.0 -t
20.0
                period wd {Sun-Sat}
                        alert mail.alert [EMAIL PROTECTED]
                        alertafter 3
                        upalert mail.alert [EMAIL PROTECTED]
                        alertevery 12h



My problem is that even though I have alertevery set, I get an email every
minute. I assume this is because of the TimeOfDay included in the "Summary
output:" (which is the output from http_t.monitor) changes, and so mon no
longers considers it the same failure. 

Here's what's in my emails:

Summary output        : 1033493273 www.socolow.com /mon.html 352   -1.000

Group                 : paul
Service               : http
Time noticed          : Tue Oct  1 10:28:54 2002
Secs until next alert : 
Members               : www.socolow.com:/mon.html



Is there an easy way to a) get mon to ignore that field or b) get
http_t.monitor to not print the timestamp.

I know I could just edit http_t.monitor, but I don't want to break anything
that might depend on the timestamp.


Apologies if this is covered somewhere, but I didn't see it in the docs or
the mailing list archives.


Thanks,


Paul Socolow
