<div>I was sure it was a legacy setting, and understand your point of view.</div>
<div>Anyway things are not totally clear for me....</div>
<div>I have a plain xymon 4.3.17 installation. Some memtests are presented as reported below.</div>
<div>As you can see, labels are different in bbwin and psclient reports. Furthermore, Swap value seems wrong for psclient on 2003.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Does still clientbbwinmembug default really matter? How are others dealing with that?</div>

it does it like BBWin – unless you set clientbbwinmemdebug = 0.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
