Buchan Mine,
Thanks a lot for the rpm and the repo. It worked perfect on my virtual
centos release 5.5
I am wondering if you have a mirror repo as well, just in case.
Also is this still the best way to add the repo and install xymon ?
# wget http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/Xymon.repo -O
/etc/yum.repos.d/Xymon.repo
# yum install xymon devmon
Thanks again for sharing the rpms

Hello; I am new to Hobbit, its looks like a wonderful tool. Can someone
kindly suggest the best method for installing on a Fedora 12 system?
Firstly, I would wonder about the wisdom of using Fedora 12 for deployment of
a monitoring system. If a production environment, you would probably be better
off using CentOS or RHEL. If this is a "play" system, then you could install
from source ....
The
site suggests an rpm, but I want to check with you all before I do
anything.
A number of distributions ship Xymon packages. For example, I maintain Xymon
and devmon in Mandriva. The Mandriva packages rebuild adequately on
CentOS/RHEL, and should probably work on Fedora as well (if you load the
compatibility macros).
A repo for CentOS5 / RHEL 5 is available here:
http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/rhel5/xymon/
SRPMS are here:
http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/SRPMS/xymon/
(or on any Mandriva mirror, and in Mandriva svn).
Regards,
Buchan
