From my point of view, the Powershell client is the official Xymon Windows client.

I think I heard of this C-based client code for Windows some years ago, but I really believe Powershell is the way to go in a Windows environment - so much easier to adapt and enhance than C code. And for the client you really want something that can be tweaked by non-programmers. That was one of the reasons that the client code shipping with Xymon is mostly scripts (shell, Perl, Python ...)

I think it would be great if there were an official Xymon client for Windows.

For what it's worth, I have been using the PowerShell based client for a long time with all my Windows systems.

Installation is really easy.  I downloaded a copy and edited xymonclient_config.xml to have my server's FQDN.  When I set up a new Windows system, I just copy that folder to C:\Program Files\Xymon, open the PowerShell prompt and type:

c:

cd '\program files\xymon'

unblock-file xymonclient.ps1

.\xymonclient.ps1 install

.\xymonclient.ps1 start

exit

I usually don't need the "c:" or "unblock-file xymonclient.ps1" commands at all.

Has anyone seen this before? It's a C-based client for Windows.
