[Xymon] Error when starting recently installed client

Interestingly enough that's not working either. I removed the old package,
installed the terabithia rpm, and started the xymon-client. It did not
complain about XYMONSERVERS not being set so something isn't right here.
Let me try a different box.

Thanks,
