[Xymon] File Monitor in Central Mode on WinXP

[Jacob Paul Jordan]

That did not make any difference.  To be clear, xymon is finding the 
file but it is ignoring the noexist.  So instead of an error if the file 
is there, it shows that everything is fine. This works fine on a linux 
client, but it is not working on a windows client.  The following is 
what xymon is showing:

[file:c:/publicdata/logs/shouldnotbehere.txt]
type:0x00020 (file)
mode:777 (not implemented)
linkcount:1
owner:0 (not implemented)
group:0 (not implemented)
size:18
atime:1328090076 (2012/02/1-09:54:36)
ctime:1327934122 (2012/01/30-14:35:22)
mtime:1327941311 (2012/01/30-16:35:11)

Thanks Paul
