 Are syntax errors in analysis.cfg logged someplace or are they silently
ignored?
The analysis.cfg file is processed by xymond, so have a look in the
xymond.log file.  There are some parsing errors that are logged, such as
"Unknown token 'X' ignored at line N".  You could try adding a bogus token
and see where it logs:

Host=bogus
    BOGUS

Hmm, just tried this out, and found the message appearing in
clientdata.log, rrd-status.log and rrd-data.log.  I guess other processes
also read analysis.cfg.
