In xymon-4.3.12 it sends the client-local block for the hostname, if it is defined OR the block for the OS, correct?? Not a blend of the two, with host-specific entries overriding the generic entries, right??
Does that change in a later release? I need a better way to manage it...

Hi Ralph
You can get a blend (merge) of the two:
from /help/manpages/man5/client-local.cfg.5.html
"If xymond is started with the "--merge-clientlocal" option, then xymond will instead merge all of the matching sections into one, and return all of this data to the client"
It appears to be global of course, and that may not be what you want.
I only knew about this because I have been working with alerting, and other settings recently and have been in and out of the docs quite a bit. :)
Hope that helps!
