Sorry still trying to get my bearings here

i got the client from http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/xymon/Xymon/4.3.10/xymon-4.3.10.tar.gz 

I did a standard install but was advised to install as root and not xymon so everything is run under root.

There ought to be one if you do a standard make install. Where did you get the client? You also don't mention anything about your OS, or client version except by accident. The basic information is usually needed.
