[Xymon] Xymon Server in Debian

[Danny Roberts]

Hi Folks,

I am currently testing out Xymon and using Debian as both the server and
client in my tests. I installed both xymon clients and the xymon server
from the Debian repo rather than using the .deb from the xymon site or
compiling from source. I have a couple of issues that may be Debian
sepcific, I originally asked this question on the Debian forums (
http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=103076) but got no response.

1. I created a user using "htpasswd" so that I could access the cgi
sections of the web server, however I am never prompted for a
username/password so still cannot access these sections.
2. I was looking for hosts.cfg to setup monitoring of diskspace and the
like but the file does not exist under /etc/hobbit where I expected it.
In-fact any file mentioned on this page does not seem to exist:
http://xymon.com/xymon/help/xymon-config.html

This second point in particular makes me think Debian is doing something
odd with packaging and file names etc. Any help is greatly appreciated.
