Thanks, trying it right now. Unfortunately getting an error. config.server
goes without any issues. The make install on the other hand gives back the
following error:

In my /install/xymon-4.3.17/common directory there is a xymongrep.1 but no
xymongrep.0. So I can imagine the error. Any idea why it looks for the .0
instead of the .1 ?

Thanks,

Rob
Rob, your issue is here:

"xymongrep.c:23:21: fatal error: version.h: No such file or directory"

version.h is a header file included in linux-headers package (at least in
Gentoo Linux)

on Gentoo:

emerge -va linux-headers


On a Debian-based system, then you want to:

apt-get install build-essential


Red Hat based:

yum install kernel-headers


Then try building Xymon again.   Basically, you are missing some dependencies,
and there may be others once you have this dependency installed.


Hope this helps

Bill
