Conn is checked from the server side, not the client side. It sounds like you haven't told the client where to connect to. Where did you configure the xymon server IP address?<br><br>I'd seriously suggest using a prebuilt RPM (search the archives for this/last month, there are a few posts), it puts various config files in /etc that are easier to diagnose configuration issues with than hand compiled installs.<br>
