Hi Jeremy,

Yes - Log-SVR is also a windows server. I've checked the BBWin.cfg files on
both and both are the same

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<bbwin>
<setting name="bbdisplay" value="z.z.z.z" />
 <!-- bbwin mode local or central -->
<setting name="mode" value="central" />
<setting name="configclass" value="win32" />
 <setting name="autoreload" value="true" />
<setting name="timer" value="5m" />
<load name="cpu" value="cpu.dll"/>
<load name="disk" value="disk.dll"/>
<load name="externals" value="externals.dll"/>
<load name="filesystem" value="filesystem.dll"/>
<load name="memory" value="memory.dll"/>
<load name="msgs" value="msgs.dll"/>
<load name="procs" value="procs.dll"/>
<load name="stats" value="stats.dll"/>
<load name="svcs" value="svcs.dll"/>
<load name="uptime" value="uptime.dll"/>
<load name="who" value="who.dll"/>
<setting name="loglevel" value="3" />
<setting name="logpath" value="..\logs\BBWin.log"/>
<!--  If true, the agent will report reporting failures as warning events
-->
<setting name="logreportfailure" value="false" />
</bbwin>
</configuration>

I've restarted the Big Brother Xymon service on the ACS-Svr and in the log
file I get

2013/12/18 11:09:21 [INFO]: bbwin is stopped.
2013/12/18 11:09:22 [INFO]: [filesystem]: failed to load logfetch status
C:\Program Files\BBWin\tmp\logfetch.status : The system cannot find the
file specified.
2013/12/18 11:09:22 [INFO]: bbwin is started - using central configuration

I thought I'd restart the service on the Log-Svr and I get the same
messages.....

Thanks

Your Xymon server isn't receiving any client messages from ACS-Svr.  Is
Log-Svr also a Windows server?  If so, check that the client is configured
the same way.  Either way, check that your Xymon client (eg BBWin) is
running and is not producing errors.

Firstly - just to pre-warn everyone, I'm pretty new to Xymon (and to
mailing lists) - although so far it has been pretty easy to setup.

I'm slowly adding some windows servers. The last device I added last
night doesn't seem to be adding any checks apart from the standard "conn",
"info" and "trends"

My hosts.cfg file is as follows:

x.x.x.x    Log-Svr                 # NOCOLUMNS:files
y.y.y.y    ACS-Svr                 # NOCOLUMNS:files

My analysis.cfg file is as follows:

HOST=Log-Svr
        DISK C 80 90
        DISK E 80 90
        MEMPHYS 75 101
        MEMSWAP 75 85
        MEMACT 75 85
        SVC TermService
        SVC SNMP
        SVC CASDiscovery
        SVC CASUniversalAgent
        SVC CatTools
        SVC FileZilla_Server
        SVC Kiwi_Syslog_Server
        PROC snmp.exe 1 1
        PROC CatTools_Service.ex 1 1

Looking through all of the log files (/var/log/xymon/) I can't seem to
find anything that would give me a clue about why this device isn't updating

Thanks everyone
