Hello I'm getting this annoying error message for a freshly installed xymon 4.3.11. [cid:image002.png at 01CE4B27.B0342C20] Is this a bug that has to be fixed? I looked over the other error message "failed with error-code 4" .. I assigned the sticky bit, verify the 2 instances of fping.. nothing seems to work.
Any ideas anybody? Thanks, Camelia

Show us the output of ls -la /usr/local/sbin/fping
My guess is that you miss the sticky bit.

It looks like you don't have the suid bit set on the fping executable, or it's not owned by root, or both.

I don't know that I speak for others but suspect that I do -- cutting and pasting the text of the error (particularly if the error is text only, which of course it is) is far preferable to screenshots, unless of course there is a compelling reason to use graphics.

Very much so. Including screen shots can slow down how soon you get an answer, since the Xymon mailer will hold messages that are too large for moderation.
