I installed xymon server on island-vm (ip address 10.1.2.159 -CentOS 6.1-64 bit OS) days ago, result is good.
As I tested xymon client install on both CentOS 5.5 (centos-55-64, first run, ip addr 192.168.1.30) or CentOS 5.7 server (island-test-57, ip address: 10.1.2.160, 2nd run), neither of them I can see the cpu, disk, memory from server URL: http://192.168.1.28/xymon/ or http://10.1.2.159/xymon/ respectively.
I followed strictly from the help document I got from server web page.
I recorded all the details of what I have gone through (see the attached
MS Notepad document).
When configure xymon client on 4.3.16, "make" gave me error:
... /home/qkpeng/xymon-4.3.16/lib/matching.c:198: undefined reference to `within_sla' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [matching.o] Error 1 make: *** [lib-client] Error 2
I tried to use xymon-4.3.17.tar.gz, and I can bypass "make" error, and successfully run to the end, but the server still don't show me "cpu disk memory" icon status.
Attached is all the details I have gone through, but I can't figure out where I did wrong?

I downloaded the xymon-client rpm from

m And installed on one of my RH 5.5 64 bit server:
[root at pctyfin01dev kpeng]# rpm -Uvh xymon-client-4.3.17-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
Install went OK, but after install, I wondered:
- How can I configure the xymon-client points to my xymon server?
- How to start the client agent?
I don't wanna go all 'rtfm' on you, but I have to ask... have you read the documentation?
Under the 'help' menu on your Xymon server's web page, you will find helpful instructions which will get you started.
Do things because you should, not just because you can.
