Why not post it on xymonton.org?

Hi,

I have created an alternate xymon binary. It's a shell script that
accepts the same options but uses curl to upload the data to a https
server with xymoncgimsg.cgi.

This way you can block port 1984 and have control who send data with a
username/ password. And the data is encrypted.
We had some external auditors who tried to send bogus messages to
corrupt our monitor solution :(

This will prevent this because you need a username and password if you
want to send something. And the data is encrypted.


Anyone interested in the script?
