Not seeing the screenshot anywhere.

What do you mean by this?

We might also look into upgrading webinject, since it has made quite a few improvements.

screen shot was in previous post.

the parent config is the "config.xml" as expected by webinject.pl. The wizard is only editing the testcase.xml file which prevents overriding webinject (or nagios) defaults. For example, I need to use <max_redirect> with 5 on some hosts, but would want 0 on others. The way the current system operates does not allow for altering the global defaults for a specific test.

It might be worth backing up your current webinject files and installing the latest version (1.81):

I have this working with the webinject linked.

this does require editing all the files created by the monitoring wizard... but it works.
