Xymon pull client data setup

also, did you add "pulldata" to the clients in your xymon hosts file.

 I have this working for all my EC2 servers (same issue with security and
opening firewall ports back inside).  Do you have port open and verified
the msgcache service is running on the clients?  Also, check the xymon
server logs...that's where I found the most helpful info.

 After getting the "piss off" response from security in regards to
monitoring systems in the DMZ I need to configure about two dozen systems
for pull vs the standard push.

 While I have gone through the documentation I am still having a few
issues and needed some help.

 *Server Changes
=>updated server/etc/tasks.cfg

 [xymonfetch]
        ENABLED
        ENVFILE /app/xymon/server/etc/xymonserver.cfg
        CMD $XYMONHOME/bin/xymonfetch --server=10.1.1.73 --no-daemon
--pidfile=$XYMONSERVERLOGS/xymonfetch.pid --interval=60 --log-interval=600
--debug
        LOGFILE $XYMONSERVERLOGS/xymonfetch.log

 *Client Changes
=>updated server/etc/clientlaunch.cfg

 [msgcache]
        ENABLED
        ENVFILE $XYMONCLIENTHOME/etc/xymonclient.cfg
        CMD $XYMONCLIENTHOME/bin/msgcache --no-daemon
--pidfile=$XYMONCLIENTLOGS/msgcache.pid --debug
--logfile=$XYMONCLIENTLOGS/msgcachedaemon.log --max-age=1200
        LOGFILE $XYMONCLIENTLOGS/msgcache.log

 # The main client task
[client]
        ENVFILE $XYMONCLIENTHOME/etc/xymonclient.cfg
        CMD $XYMONCLIENTHOME/bin/xymonclient.sh
        LOGFILE $XYMONCLIENTLOGS/xymonclient.log
        INTERVAL 5m

 =>updated server/etc/xymonclient.cfg
XYMSRV="127.0.0.1"

 Any help to get this working is greatly appreciated.

 Thanks
Blake
