OK Gmail helpfully showed me Tom Stewart's message from a while ago, I needed a

I'm having trouble with a server not reporting procs, and I'm seeing

truncated (n=877375, limit 524288)

Now, I've played around with MAXMSG_DATA and MAXMSG_CLIENT, always
restarting xymond, but I cannot get that limit above 524288. If I set
very low values, I get a lower limit, but I can't seem to set higher
values and get a *higher* limit.

Right now I've got

MAXLINE="1572864"
MAXMSG_STATUS="4096"
MAXMSG_DATA="4096"

Am I missing some dependency?

(this is xymon 4.3.2 on Oracle Linux)
