Galen,

if egress SSH is allowed you could use an SSH tunnel from the central to the regional Servers opening say port 1985. Then use that for the communication between the Xymon servers.

This will weaken the intentions of the security policy of course ...

The tunnel can be managed by the ssh-tunnels extension by Padraig Lennon (on Xymonton) or my slightly extended version (on http://www.it-eckert.com/software/patches/ssh-tunnel/). There are also some blog posts on my site on setup and combining with xymonproxy.

HTH
