</I>&gt;<i> We have this warning, but xymon is checking the wrong certificate as it

</I>
Well, there is an http/https check for friteuse for the URL 
<A HREF="https://forum.mageia.org,">https://forum.mageia.org,</A> specify friteuse' IP, and there is also a check on 
forums.mageia.org for the URL <A HREF="https://forums.mageia.org.">https://forums.mageia.org.</A> On Alamut, 
forums.mageia.org resolves to friteuse (entry in /etc/hosts), and the URL 
check <A HREF="https://forums.mageia.org">https://forums.mageia.org</A> does not currently specify to use the public 
IP.

&gt;<i> But normal users using the forum are connecting to alamut
</I>&gt;<i> which is doing reverse proxy to friteuse, and using alamut ssl
</I>&gt;<i> certificate (which is valid until febuary 2013).
</I>
But, when friteuse' certificate expires, alamut's reverse proxy may refuse to 
connect to friteuse, so both should be checked.

&gt;<i> So we should either disable this check for forums.mageia.org, or move
</I>&gt;<i> xymon to an other server.
</I>
No, the URL check for <A HREF="https://forums.mageia.org">https://forums.mageia.org</A> on host forums.mageia.org 
should specify to connect to the IP of alamut instead of friteuse (or the 
entry in /etc/hosts on alamut should be removed if it is not required). I have 
done add the IP in the URL check for forums in r2358.

Buchan
