???? I have a server running xymon-4.3.28.? For the clients that send data to this machine I have a number of plugins configured on the client machines in the ext directory and configured in the etc/clientlaunch.cfg file.? Can someone tell me how to configure the server to add plugins the same way. Or is it not done this way. I see no clientlaunch.cfg file. Everything is working for the client part of the server like disk and cpu.

You could probably run both client and server configurations simultaneously, but that's not efficient.
So those entries end up in the server portion's etc/tasks.cfg (instead of in clientlaunch.cfg as on all other clients). Here's a couple of custom entries I have there, the first for a server side ext (monitoring some smart plugs) the 2nd for a client side volume management ext to run on the server. Note the different environment variables, esp XYMONHOME (server side ext) vs XYMONCLIENTHOME (client side ext)
[devstat] ENVFILE $XYMONHOME/etc/xymonserver.cfg CMD $XYMONHOME/ext/devstat LOGFILE $XYMONSERVERLOGS/devstat.log INTERVAL 5m [volmgt] ENVFILE $XYMONCLIENTHOME/etc/xymonclient.cfg NEEDS xymond CMD $XYMONCLIENTHOME/ext/volmgt LOGFILE $XYMONCLIENTHOME/logs/volmgt.log INTERVAL 5m

?? Ok thank you. ?? One of the plugins/scripts I have running checks the mdstat of many of the linux commands like passwd, ps,ls.? Someone tries to play with these and other commands the sums will change and I will get paged. Just some info for you and others.

I assume you mean MD5sum, not mdstat which is generally checking that status of your MD (linux software RAID).
