BBWin client not appearing in server
I have some additional information. I changed the logging level from 3 to 4, restarted the service, and the logs now show the following.

It is telling you the issue:

Seems like a strange place for a config file.

I feel like that is a software generated file, though. Configuration files generally appear in C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\etc.
Even if it was supposed to be there, what should be in it? The installer made a bbwin.cfg file in the etc directory, but the tmp directory is empty.

I just learned of BBWin last night and have been trying to get it to work with my Xymon system. I've got it installed and started, added the system to hosts.cfg on the server, and I can now see it on conn, info, and trends, but nothing else. I only changed BBWin.cfg enough to set the "mode" to "central".
The C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\logs\BBWin.log file shows these messages every 5 minutes:
[filesystem]: can't open C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp\clientlocal.cfg : The system cannot find the file specified.
[msgs]: can't open C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp\clientlocal.cfg : The system cannot find the file specified.
[svcs]: can't open C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp\clientlocal.cfg : The system cannot find the file specified.
I've also found the following error when I restart the BBWin service:

I confirmed that these files are missing, but the "tmp" folder exists.

I would suggest the Powershell client instead of the BBWin client, but it's up to you.
Here's my instructions for the BBWin client. *
Install the BB-Xymon clienthttp://sourceforge.net/projects/bbwin/
Configure the client’s config
o
BBWin server address
+
servername.yourdomain.com
o
Hostname
+
PC-123 (must match the Hostname in the server hosts.cfg file)
o
Mode
+
local
o
Services
+
Add the services you want to monitor
o
Processes
+
Add the processes you want to monitor
o
XML File tab
+
Save*
Start the BBwin service manually the first time*
Configure the firewall to allow port 1984*
If you edit the config, restart the service*
Give it about 30 minutes to clear the red messages that will pop up*
You can manually edit the BBWin.cfg file and make all ‘msgs’ green- Also, if using the BBWin client I always use the GUI tool. It just works easier to add/remove services and processes to the config. https://sourceforge.net/projects/bbwingui/ <https://sourceforge.net/projects/bbwingui/files/>
If you want to use the Powershell client instead, https://www.krisspringer.com/posts/xymon-ps-client.php

I would second using the Powershell client over BBWin. Even if you can get it working, the central mode is not well supported. If you really want to use BBWin, it may be you have a permissions issue. What version of Windows are you running?

I didn't even know about the PowerShell version. I'll have to check that out.
In the mean time, I did a full uninstall of BBWin, ran BBWin GUI, and found out that it wanted me to install .Net 3.5 and reinstall BBWin. So I did that and built a new config file from the defaults. This one started to work. I also had to do some things to deal with the fact that Windows's "logs" are so large that it exceeded my Xymon system's limits (as well as my human limits.) At this point, I have data showing up.
I'll take a look at the PowerShell version next. Thanks everyone.

The PowerShell version turned out to be really easy to use, once I figured it out. I see why you prefer it. Thanks for the tip!
I only have two glitches remaining. First, I have a Windows 10 VM that is giving a yellow alert on MEMSWAP. This is despite changing the configuration. Here is what it looks like now.
DEFAULT
# These are the built-in defaults. You should only modify these
# lines, not add new ones (no PROC, DISK, LOG ... lines).
UP 1h
LOAD 5.0 10.0
DISK * 90 95
INODE * 70 90
MEMPHYS 100 101
MEMSWAP 50 80
MEMACT 90 97
PORT "LOCAL=%([\.:]22)$" STATE=ESTABLISHED min=0 TRACK=ssh"TEXT=SSH logins"
PORT "LOCAL=%([\.:]80)$" STATE=ESTABLISHED min=0 TRACK=http"TEXT=Web Connections"
[ ... other hosts here ... ]
HOST=host.domain.name
MEMSWAP 75 85As far as I can tell, the settings for DEFAULT are still in effect for host.domain.name. (This is not its real FQDN.) It is giving a yellow alert for 55% utilization. Any suggestions on why it is using the DEFAULT configuration instead of the HOST=... configuration?
The second issue is that Xymon keeps giving alerts for CPU over-utilization when the systems are running just fine. The CPU page for those hosts will have text like this:
Wed 22 May 15:54:07 2019 up: 6 days, 0 users, 82 procs, load=6.73%
If I'm reading this right, the CPU is reporting in percentage instead of Unix-like "load" numbers, so Xymon is getting confused. Is that right? Should I just make a new "LOAD 85 95" line in analysis.cfg for those hosts?
Thanks for all the help.

I just learned of BBWin last night and have been trying to get it to work with my Xymon system. I've got it installed and started, added the system to hosts.cfg on the server, and I can now see it on conn, info, and trends, but nothing else. I only changed BBWin.cfg enough to set the "mode" to "central".
The C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\logs\BBWin.log file shows these messages every 5 minutes:
[filesystem]: can't open C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp\clientlocal.cfg : The system cannot find the file specified.
[msgs]: can't open C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp\clientlocal.cfg : The system cannot find the file specified.
[svcs]: can't open C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp\clientlocal.cfg : The system cannot find the file specified.
I've also found the following error when I restart the BBWin service:
[filesystem]: failed to load logfetch status C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp\logfetch.status : The system cannot find the file specified.
I confirmed that these files are missing, but the "tmp" folder exists.
Any thoughts on what I've missed?
