I would also add that in: /usr/lib/xymon/client/etc/xymonclient.cfg on the server once the RPM is installed you need to replace the include statement with the below text: XYMSRV="" # IP address of the Xymon server XYMSERVERS="" # IP of multiple Xymon servers. XYMSRV must be "0.0.0.0".
This is because the init script for the client correctly uses the /etc/default/xymon-client to create a file /var/run/xymonclient-runtime.cfg that is what is included, but the server init script does not do these things.
It's a lot easier if you hardcode XYMSRV=0.0.0.0 across the board and deal only with XYMSERVERS -- then you can bypass the whole runtime.cfg thing and just "include /etc/sysconfig/xymon-client" on both your client and server configs.
