[Xymon] xymond_alert --test

[Jeremy Laidman]

The error code for this message comes from the fopen()/open() system calls,
and is defined in errno.h as EIO.  The man page for open() shows that this
indicates a problem accessing a STREAMS file, which was probably the socket
to the Xymon server.

But the real problem appears to be that you can't connect to the Xymon
server as indicated in the earlier error saying "Connection refused".  This
means that the Xymon server at 10.10.3.153 is not listening for connections
on port 1984.  All errors after this are most likely a result of this
failure to connect.

Try doing "telnet 10.10.3.153 1984" and see if you get a connection.  If
not, then make sure xymond is running on the Xymon server.
