I have a number of clients behind firewalls like that. Here's how I enter them into my Xymon Server's hosts.cfg file.
0.0.0.0 PC-Name # noconn dialup
I then make sure the BBwin config on the client machine is setup correctly to send it's data to my Xymon server. This gives me all the info I need about the client machine. What it doesn't do is 'ping' it. But client machines are always turning off and on anyway so I don't really care if I can ping it. Hope this helps.

Hi,
I want to use the bbwin client from outside my network and have multiply clients reporting data to my xymon server at 1984. But how do I add them to the list when they are reporting from the same ip but with diffrent names ?
