So - your network tests ( server to client ) are green 
and current?  Server to client comms OK.
 
Your client tests are purple, no ghosts, no logfetch.* 
files?  Client to server comms NOTOK.

      Hi,

Do you have anything 
        under Ghost reports on the xymon server?
I don't have anything under ghost 
        report.

Are the client 
        and server on the same or different hosts?
They are running on different hosts. 
        

Is the 
        client pointing at the correct address and port for the xymon 
        server
Yes it is pointing the correct 
        address and port.

How do you know files are 
        missing from ~/client/tmp directory .. what are you expecting to see 
        there? 
When 
        the client functioned(the test were green in xymon server) correctly i 
        saw two more files there logfetch.clientname.cfg and 
        logfetch.clientname.status.

Have 
        you checked the clientlaunch.log and xymonclient.log files for errors 
        in  ~/client/logs?
I see no 
        errors.

Regards,
Traian.

                Hi,
That one i have solved it, 
                  but....
Now i have reinstallled the client and i started it 
                  using ./runclient.sh --hostname=host start command from xymon 
                  user.
On the xymon server web page all the tests(disk,cpu 
                  etc) appear in violet colour and i see there the last report i 
                  had from when it functioned ok.
On the client i have issued 
                  some commands and you have the output 
                  here:

[root at otpproxy1 tmp]# ps -ef | grep

                  tmp]#

As i see there are some files missing from tmp 
                  directory. I don't understand why.
Can you please give me a 
                  hint?
Regards,
Traian.
