Since the 'conn' test is normally populated by a server-side instance of xymonnet, I can think of a few ways this could happen:

A) DNS round-robin (multiple A-records), one of which isn't responding

B) More than one instance of xymonnet running, one of which is on a network which is firewalled from the host

C) An errant client sending a 'status' message with the 'conn' tag

D) Multipathing on your network, one path of which isn't working

    Do things because you should, not just because you can.
