That makes a lot of sense. I did have some issues with the startup scripts
on HP-UX. I'll check it out later tonight. Hopefully i can get it fixed
before it goes live tonight. Thanks!

*Subject:* [hobbit] False Process Down Alerts

I'm run into a strange problem with my Xymon server. I noticed today that
I'm receiving random false alerts for processes being down. When I look at
the process list output in the alert it looks as if the data coming from the
clients isn't correct. Here is an example. Has anyone seen anything like
this?
