There's 2 ports for xymon:
- xymon-server - the server version
- xymon - the client only version

So to install the client version you may do "sudo port install xymon".


Now those names are probably not right: "xymon" port might sound "Xymon 
Server" to people ears. Did you expect "xymon-client" as client-only 
package name ?


There was some discussions about the names of those packages:

http://lists.xymon.com/archive/2010-November/029941.html

What would be your choice ?


About the version: I've just submitted v4.3.7 update. It should be 
available in a few days.


Thank you very much for your feedback.


Regards,
Francois.
