Hi,
Is there a way from the server, to find out what version
the client is running?
I looked in the xymon command man page, but didn't find
anything.

See http://www.xymon.com/xymon/help/manpages/man1/clientupdate.1.html
By default, no ... not unless you've created a file at
$XYMONHOME/etc/clientversion.cfg, which gets included in the
[clientversion] section by xymonclient.sh.
The Terabithia RPMs report their RPM version there automatically.
(Presumably if you're installing by RPM you probably wouldn't be running
the clientupdate binary to deploy tarballs.)
You could have the base rpm on a kickstart server, so that all machines
get kickstarted with a standard image
And then later on in the process, the update client based on their machine
type once deployed, that is how ours runs
Either way, you'd query like so:
/]$ xymon localhost "clientlog rhel6-x86-64.build section=clientversion"
[clientversion]
Xymon version 4.3.11-8.1.el6
/]$
