It seems that telnet works because it returns "connected to 
193.61.54.144", however it looks like it hangs after the:
(Escape character is '^]') line. I can type things but nothing is 
returned when I hit "Enter", only the cursor just goes to the next line.
I only use ssh so I can't tell if my telnet works properly.

This is what I get:

telnet 193.61.54.144 1984
Trying 193.61.54.144...
Connected to 193.61.54.144.
Escape character is '^]'.

Yes xymond is running. It's first on my "top" list:

(23182 xymon 25   0  7992 1984 1380 R   100.0    0.1   8286:29 xymond)


The command you asked me to run returns the following:

2012-10-15 10:00:10 Using default environment file 
/home/xymon/server/etc/xymonserver.cfg
2012-10-15 10:00:25 Whoops ! Failed to send message (timeout)

    Yes this IP is my xymon server. I can telnet and ssh to the server

Sorry, I meant to ask if you can  telnet to it on port 1984, rather 
than the default telnet port.  So:

telnet 193.61.54.144 1984

    For some strange reason the xymon main page does not get updated
    anymore. I have manually added a few more hosts in 'hosts.cfg' but
    they don't show up.


The Xymon page generator probably needs to query the xymond process 
using port 1984 (using the xymon command).

    Also I have checked that
    1) xymon.sh is running


Is xymond running?

Let's try to reproduce the conditions that would have led to the error 
message.  Try running this to see what it gives you:

xymoncmd xymon 193.61.54.144 'xymondboard 
fields=hostname,testname,color,flags,lastchange,logtime,validtime,acktime,disabletime,sender,cookie,line1,acklist'
