A quick thought.... use rsync to eliminate the human from having to 
remember about the second web server.

Greetings,

I'm trying to figure out the best way for Xymon to alert when it detects that a httpd.conf file on two different webheads is different.  Due to safety reasons we don't automate our web server config files, but rather use change control to keep them managed.  I want to be able to see if someone modifies one config file on one server, but forgets to do it on the second one.   I guess I could write a backend script to do it, but thought maybe there was a way to leverage the FILE monitor in hobbit-clients.cfg.

TIA,
Tom
