[Xymon] ssh-test as default

[Neil Simmonds]

if you make use of the class in your hosts.cfg you could check that ssh
is running and check the port as well if all your hosts use the standard
port.

All my AIX and Linux servers have CLASS:aix or CLASS:linux on their
hosts.cfg entries and my analysis.cfg has the following,

CLASS=linux
         PROC /usr/sbin/sshd 1    

CLASS=aix
        PROC sshd 1 

I could also include the port check if it wasn't for the fact that 1
server uses a non standard port so I have the port checks in the
individual files in analysis.d directory.
