Xymon is distributed as source code that you compile.  Some of the Linux

other things (fping, rrdtool, etc.), but the client needs are much simpler.

If your client system is a similar architecture to your server, you can
copy the client directory to your client, though you will still need to
integrate it with startup/shutdown, etc.  Beware of what is in your log and
tmp directories (under client) when you copy this stuff.

You can compile just the client by following the instructions in the
documentation.

I did not find it in the wiki and I cannot tell from the listing at:

        where the client code is - it just talks about building the

Where do I need to get just the client source from?

I am trying to get this information to the *NIX group for testing.
I told him that he could copy over the files but that won't help for

The client and server are in the same archive.  The source is on
Sourceforge
and the command to get it (4.2.3 at least) is in that wiki article I
linked.

Xymon is distributed as source code that you compile.  Some of the

Linux

distributions have packages available to save you from the
config/compile
step, but usually these are older versions.  The server requires a
number of
other things (fping, rrdtool, etc.), but the client needs are much
simpler.

If your client system is a similar architecture to your server, you
