<p class="MsoNormal">So that would be the server is performing a test on the non-existent machine.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Look in tasks.cfg or tasks.d. Or maybe it’s a crontab.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The other thing you can do is put the non-existent machine into hosts.cfg and then eventually you will get the test to show up, so you know what it is that is running on that machine.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Consolas">I have a non-existent server which shows constantly in my “Ghost clients” report. I think there must be a test somewhere that’s reporting the wrong host name.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
