Doesn't Apple boast OS X (which I'm guessing you're talking about) is UNIX?
I would imagine you have gcc and can simply compile the (xymon client) source.

Does anyone know if there is a hobbit/bbwin/xymon client for MAC's? If there is can someone point me in the right direction. Thanks
It would be nice to have a GUI-ified OSX native version of the client, however.
What I know so far are
- xymon client is compiled ok on OS X S.L.
- use GUI packagemaker to create simple hobbit client. but this is not up the quality of my own standard.
What I want to see is like this
- use makefile to compile xymon client
- generate xymonclient.pkg after "make osxpkg"
- xymonclient.pkg 3.1 preinstall(pre-flight) script 3.1.1. add xymon client user and group account. 3.2 post install script 3.2.1 make sure xymon client can start up automatically after reboot. 3.2 not sure if OS X support postremove script. if yes, remove xymon client user and group account.
I can work with someone know Cocoa programming and can put a GUI frontend to process string setting in hobbitclient.cfg etc. But GUI part is pretty low on my priority list since I am Unix person :)
