Resolved. It turns out I have a bash script running from
hobbitlaunch.cfg, and in bash parenthesis have a special meaning and thus it blows up when
running the cmd:
. /usr/local/xymon/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
I changed the MAILC line to use single quotes such as:
MAILC="/usr/bin/nail -r 'user-4b9489cbb9ab@xymon.invalid (Xymon)'"
And all is well. Sorry for the email traffic, but hey, this will hit the
archive and maybe help someone in the future ;)
I don't suppose you tried escaping the quotes?
MAILC="/usr/bin/nail -r \"user-4b9489cbb9ab@xymon.invalid (Xymon)\""
Regards,
Malcolm
