I cannot find a second entry with an IP address.
I have hundreds of other servers with 0.0.0.0 entries so I cannot figure
out what is happening?
Running Xymon 4.3.0-0.beta2 on CentOS 5.5 on Dell R-610.
I tried to do a ‘drop hostname’, could there be a duplicate in the Xymon
data base?
If so, how do you remove the bad one so you don’t loose the history being
gathered by the client on the Windows server.
The client is the big brother client.

It says the duplicate is in bb-hosts. Grep bb-hosts for that hostname. If
you have 'include'd files grep those, too. You should be able to verify the
duplicate and maybe even find it.

Sorry, ignore my last reply. I ready the OP first on my iPhone and missed
the part about your grep of bb-hosts.
You might try adding the 'prefer' keyword on the line with the IP address.
