Client hostname, fqdn, and client name in the /home/xymon/server/etc/hosts.cfg is the same. When these things don't match, client is not sending updates, but these things are correct and I get updates for CPU and everything else, just conn is clear. When I power off client, I get message System critical when I qo on conn page and it says System ping failure, but still, the face is white. I'm afraid of missing some important alerts because of that.

Hello,

I am using xymon server on Centos 5.7 machine for monitoring 15 Centos machines. On every machine there is xymon client installed. Everything works fine, except on one machine host1 at domain1.com (Centos 6.0) conn status shows white face, but the message is Service conn on host1 at domain1.com is OK (up).

Also, if I try fping host1 at domain1.com, from the machine with xymon server, I get: host1 at domain1.com is alive.

All other services (cpu,memory,procs..) shows green face.

Thank you for your help

Milana

Is your host really defined as "host1 at (@) domain1.com"?
