[Xymon] 4.3.4 proxy to a 4.2.3 server

[Root, Paul]

I have 2 proxy servers forwarding up to a main server. One has been upgraded to 4.3.4 and the other is still 4.2.3.

I went to upgrade the second server today, and it went badly. I got  a huge amount of purple faces. Mostly on conn for my devmon clients and ntp for my regular clients.

The devmon clients are noconn on the server, for various reasons, and the regular servers have ntp in the proxy's hosts.cfg/bb-hosts file, but not in the servers bb-hosts file, due to firewalling issues.

Anyway,  I'm starting to think that my 4.3.4 proxy is not actually proxying up to the main server. It proxies to itself (on 1985) and a 4.3.4 test server just fine.

Is there an issue with a 4.3.4 sending proxy data to an older server?

I also just found some other information, on the 4.3.4 in the log files:

rrd-data.log:
2011-08-24 14:20:52 Peer not up, flushing message queue

2011-08-24 14:21:11 Peer not up, flushing message queue


And rrd-status.log is the same.

And so I look at the web of the 4.3.4 server and there are no graphs.  There are graphs on the test server.

Any ideas?
