So the command is accepted by xymond and sent on, but not received by

Unfortunately (?) this IPC is controlled by semaphores, so seeing as to
why xymond_hostdata does not pick up the message may be difficult.
A ha! It all makes sense now... :) The root of this is actually a known
issue: drop commands not getting sent to the CLICHG channel, which is why
it only shows up here and not, say, xymond_rrd... xymond_hostdata is the
only built-in that uses this one.


It's patched in the Terabithia RPMs from last month, but it's not in the
release tarball yet. The attached file should resolve it for you; can you
verify?
Hello,

Yes that patch works fine :-) The hostdata log now shows the directory
(and files) being deleted (and I checked that they had actually been
deleted from the disk).

Many thanks for your help.


John.
