Nothing to help with interacting with the ones that come with the
standard build and install of the server portion of Xymon.
Feel free to contribute some documentation for this ...
I can send in client reports of all kinds... but I am having specific
problems with the formatting for the client data collector channel on
the Xymon server. I can't find any information anywhere on that, or
what patterns the server is looking for, etc. I have the option of
doing everything client side, but why should I when that awesome module
is already there on the server if I can just figure out why it doesn't
like my formatting?
You can either use the formats of existing supported clients, or read the
source to see what formats are supported, or contribute code to support your
format.
In the end I may have to do just that though, or
more likely just give up if I can't get any help with interacting with
the stock server channels. I refuse to spend hours trying to reinvent
multiple wheels. :-(
BTW., which clients did you try?
