- snip - I am looking for advice on the most stable recent release of Xymon for this new server.
You don't say what operating system or platform you are targeting for your Xymon server. In my case (Solaris 10 on SPARC), I am satisfied with the most recent version of Xymon and can think of no reason to use anything older.
I've stayed current, with server on Solaris 11 and clients on Solaris 9 through 11 as well as Macs on Snow Leopard, Mavericks, and El Capitan; and a Linux VM or two. No problems, but I don't use features like email alerts, multiple server support, etc. I do use the client tar balls on the server for the clients to self-update (building on the oldest of each OS/architecture, which so far runs fine on the newer ones).
