[Xymon] monitoring virtual vips

[Jeremy Laidman]

Rodney

It just occurred to me that you could do this by specifying a"negative"
network test on the Xymon server. In your hosts.cfg file, add "!port23456
!port8377 ..." for an entry for the VIP and then define these names in
protocols.cfg, like so:

[port23456]
    port 23456

[port8377]
    port 8377
