I did a restart but it is still referencing the old ip. See the netstat

tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:1984            0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN

This line shows that something is listening on all interfaces.  I think the server part is probably OK.

tcp        0      1 10.120.1.21:48182       10.121.0.134:1984
SYN_SENT

This line is an attempted connection from this machine to 10.121.0.134. The TCP connection is stuck at the first phase (SYN_SENT), probably because that address doesn't actually exist anywhere.

Something on the xymon server system (most likely the xymon client) is still configured to talk to the old IP address.

On my xymon server running on Ubuntu 18, version 4.3.28-3build1, the first uncommented line in /etc/default/xymon-client is this:

XYMONSERVERS="127.0.0.1"

The only other uncommented line is the setting for CLIENTHOSTNAME.

Thanks,
Shawn
