Xymond man page :-
--admin-senders=IP[/MASK][,IP/MASK] Controls which hosts may send administrative commands to xymond. These commands are the "drop" and "rename" commands. Access to these should be restricted, since they provide an un-authenticated means of completely disabling monitoring of a host, and can be used to remove all traces of e.g. a system compromise from the Xymon monitor. Note: If messages are sent through a proxy, the IP-address restrictions are of little use, since the messages will appear to originate from the proxy server address. It is therefore strongly recommended that you do NOT include the address of a server running xymonproxy in the list of allowed addresses.
Command should be run as xymon user on xymon server.

Hi
I've tried to drop "conn" check for two hosts and I'm getting "connection refused" (saw it in xymond.log). I've tried from both the server and client.
2013-01-07 12:35:13 Refused message from xx.xx.xx.xx: drop dev.domain.com conn 2013-01-07 12:37:20 Refused message from xx.xx.xx.xx: drop dev.domain.com conn
Any thoughts ?
