Hey,
I have a couple of questions regarding the client-local.cfg file.
can it handle reg-ex for hostnames like other cfg files? For example, [%(myhost1|myhost2).*]
According to the man page for client-local.cfg, "When clients connect to the Xymon server to send in their client data, they will receive part of this file back from the Xymon server." What if you are using xymonfetch? Would I need to create a local client-local.cfg file within the .../xymon/client/etc folder?
Already ran through this (even asked on this list)...no...no regexp for the hosts in client-local.cfg.
Use the client-local.cfg file on the server in $XYMONHOME/etc (or, if you installed via rpm, /etc/xymon. I do have a couple of systems where I'm using xymonfetch, and it's pulling data, including log info and such, without any issues.
