Does it go green when you restart the client, then eventually go purple again? If so, it seems like something stuck in xymonlaunch -- the client itself is just a shell script.
Can you try running xymonlaunch with --debug to see what's happening, or strace it as it's running and send the output?

Hello,
I have Xymon 4.3.7 running as server on a CentOS 6 box - no problems. I have a mixture of RHEL3, 4, 5 and 6, and CentOS 5 & 6 clients. These all work fine except for the RHEL3 client. That one shows purple for the cpu, disk, files, memory and procs tests. The tests seem to have picked up some data from the first run after starting up, but since then they seem to have reported nothing (and hence purple).
I have been looking into this for a while now, and am at a bit of a loss as to why just this one client is having a problem. I have stopped the firewall on both client and server, but that makes no difference. A tcpdump shows that data is being sent to/from the client/server. I can see no obvious difference between this client and any of the others.
Anyone any ideas about this?
Thanks,
John.
