What he is asking for is if there is one proc column for each proc.  There
is not.

The proc column for the host includes EVERY ps.  If any one ps goes down the
color changes for that one column (proc).  You would need to make a script
to monitor a ps and create another column.

               I'm trying to monitor multiple processes on Linux servers.
I would like to use Page/subpage like described in the
Hobbit-clients.cfg file, but it will only show one processes on the page
for
each server. Here is a what I have in the file.
PAGE=infrastructure/noc
      PROC batchman
      PROC jobman
      PROC netman
Infrastructure is the page
Noc is the subpage.
XYMON only finds the first PROC.

I'm not sure what you mean by that:

* Does it only check for the first of those processes, so you have
 only one red/green "dot" on the detailed "procs" status display?
 There should be one red/green dot for each of the processes
 listed, e.g. like that on the demo site - see

http://www.xymon.com/xymon-cgi/svcstatus.sh?HOST=voodoo.hswn.dk&SERVICE=procs

* Or does it check all of the processes, but only on the first
 host on the page ?
