[Xymon] XymonPSClient CPU graphs missing over HTTPS

I'm not sure I understand your question, but the directory tests are the 
only extra ones I have defined that the xymonPSclient runs directly on the 
host. The other tests (mem, disk, svc, procs, who) all are sent over https 
too and the rrd graphs are working fine. The hosts' cpu text content does 
show up on the Server side and looks fine, there's just no rrd graph being 
created.
