Hi There
I am monitoring mostly windows servers with BBwin. I would suggest that you read the help file included with the program. This would be located in a folder like this C:\Program Files\BBWin\doc by default but if you installed it somewhere else then go look there.
"The begin with BBwin" section of the CHM file explains what you need to do.
Basically there are a couple of steps after installing to get it to work with XyMon
Server Side Step
- Edit the bb-hosts file under the /xymon/server/etc directory and add the new windows machine in there e.g. 172.27.1.1 XPserv1
Client Side Step
Edit the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BBWin\hostname key on the WindowsXP box and the name as you configured it in Xymon's hosts file i.e. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BBWin\hostname XPserv1
Edit the BBwin.cfg file in the etc directory of your BBwin installation Change this setting to your xymon server IP Address <setting name="bbdisplay" value="1.1.1.1:1984" />
Start BBwin and give it 5 or so minutes and you will see data flowing to the xymon server.
If you need more help let me know. I can also help you with developing your own custom plug-ins for xymon.
Cheers Neil
