Bests regards,

I followed a suggested fix in another thread (RHEL5 client compilation
error
xymon-4.2.3-RC1) on this list which fixed the compilation error.

Add the following to the Makefile after you run ./configure --client:
# clock_gettime() settings
LIBRTDEF = -lrt

I've installed the client on a few test boxes and it appears to be working
normally, I'm hoping Henrik will chime in to verify this is an adequate
fix?

I saw a couple of threads on this issue but I'm not clear what the best
solution is.  When I run a ping to a given host on the same network I see
the response in very small ms response times but Hobbit 4.2 reports that
they are from 20ms to 40ms.  Another poster commented:

"It looks like the delays are coming from the usleep line in send_ping();
this looks like it was put in there to do some network/cpu throttling,
which would definitely make the bbtest-net duration longer, but I'm not
sure yet why it is affecting the icmp return times.

Running hobbitping with the flag "--max-pps=10000000" seems to fix
things."

My question is -- Where do you add that flag?

Also, would it be advantageous to run fping instead of Hobbitping?  How many
of you are running fping instead of Hobbitping and why did you choose that?

Use fping. Most of us I think. Same reason why you are going to choose
it. It is not
production ready. Something much better is coming with Xymon 4.3 per Henrik.

Thanks,
