I have two xymon servers (4.3.7) running, one here in Pennsylvania and one
in New York. Both have "summary" lines at the end of their hosts.cfg files
pointing to the other. In PA, the xymond button shows most, if not all, of
the NY clients as ghosts, with the reporting IP being the IP of the PA
hobbit server. NY doesn't have this problem. Anyone know why this might be
happening?

Do you have both IP addresses in the XYMSERVERS setting in xymonserver.cfg?
 Try putting each server's own IP address only.  Not entirely sure why it
would happen only on one server, but perhaps it has something to do with
the order you've listed the IP addresses.

No, they already only have their own IPs listed

Thanks
