Is it possible you have two different hosts reporting under the same name? If your reports are coming in more frequently than every five minutes (check alert history) then you likely have two different machines reporting the same name.

Jeremy, Yes, all files in the tmp directory match the hostname of the machine. It seems as the mismatch is coming from the hobbitd on the server.

On the client, do you have a file in /tmp (or $XYMONTMP) called "msg.<name-of-host>.txt"? Does the filename match the hostname? Does the contents show the correct hostname? _______________________________________________ Xymon mailing list Xymon at xymon.com <mailto:Xymon at xymon.com> http://lists.xymon.com/mailman/listinfo/xymon
