[Xymon] How to forward xymonserver os data to 2nd xymonserver?

[Root, Paul]

That gives you a single point of failure however.

I prefer to have clients send to multiple places.

Due to an overly complex network, I have 2 proxies, each with their own server moved to port 1985, and a single centralized main server.

I'm not enthralled by the setup, but with firewalling constraints and a lot of WAN stuff, it's how I needed to build it.
