Thanks all! Jeremy, thanks for narrowing down the issue. I had to give the fqdn and it is being monitored by xymon now.
Thanks Zain

Look at the Ghost report on the Xymon server to see if it recognises the client hostname, and adjust on either end if required.
Look at the logfiles clientlaunch.log and xymonclient.log to see if anything weird is showing up.
On the client, see what happens when you run this (replace xymoncmd if it's somewhere else):
echo '$XYMON $XYMSRV ping' | ~xymon/client/bin/xymoncmd
and if that works, try this:
echo '$XYMON $XYMSRV "config hosts.cfg"' | ~xymon/client/bin/xymoncmd
and then this:
echo '$XYMON $XYMSRV "client/test $MACHINEDOTS."' | ~xymon/client/bin/xymoncmd
and maybe this:
echo '$XYMON $XYMSRV ghostlist' | ~xymon/client/bin/xymoncmd
Cheers Jeremy

So I found that on my client machine under /home/xymon/client/etc (xymonclient.cfg) had a differnent IP for xymon server. So I have replaced it and restarted xymon. But this doesn't seem to work as well.

Hello, Can anyone please let me know how to configure my remote machine to be monitored by xymon? I Currently only ssh and conn are working but other services are not getting monitored. Please advise.
Zain,
Depending on which Linux distro the remote client is running, the info could be different.
RHEL/CentOS: /etc/sysconfig/xymon-client - Update the "XYMONSERVERS" variable with your xymon server's FQDN. Debian/Ubuntu: look for xymonclient.cfg (mine's in ~xymon/client/etc) and change the "XYMSRV" variable with your xymon server's FQDN.
Other systems distributions, I couldn't tell you.
