[Xymon] GROUP issue

Tue Nov 29 11:38:47 CET 2011

I tried both ways and none worked. :-(

testing with xymond_alert work fine:
/usr/lib64/xymon/server/bin/xymond_alert --debug --test xymon1 disk
--group=UNIX_TEAM_PARTITION

30885 2011-11-29 11:36:12 Transport setup is:

So xymond_client should have the problem but I don't know how to test it.
