was the addition
echo "Xymon started"

Did a "xymon.sh restart" (several times) and no log file. Then I tried removing the "=....log" , with just the "... --debug" and stopped/restarted things. All with no success.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Simply a "--debug" is sufficient. The flag is set as soon as it's encountered in the option list, so you should actually see output even sooner if you put it first. Output should end up in xymonlaunch.log.
Also, for xymonlaunch I believe even in 4.3.3 sending it a -USR2 signal will turn debugging on and off on the fly. Wherever it starts sending data out to as a result of that should be where a '--debug' sends it to as well.
HTH,
