[Xymon] client problems

My client OS is Win7.  The script is written in AutoIt and is, right now
at least, a proof of concept that I'd be embarrassed to share publicly
as it's pretty bad.  The output of the script is between the lines
below.  I just open a TCP connection to port 1984 and send the lines
across.  The file is written in *nix format with LF at the end of each
line so I don't have to alter it during the send operation.

Can you post some more information?
Like the OS of your client, the script you use, the output of the
script, ...

I have also written a custom client for powerHA clustering on AIX.
