My advice, (as well as Xymon's advice when you compile it) don't use  xymonping.  All its really good for is testing to see that a host is up  or not.  Its response times aren't dependable.
Can you cite me any more sources on this? If so, I'll consider making  xymon-server in FreeBSD depend on fping and come autoconfigured to use  it...
