1) Already ran through this (even asked on this list)...no...no regexp for
the hosts in client-local.cfg.

2) Use the client-local.cfg file on the server in $XYMONHOME/etc (or, if
you installed via rpm, /etc/xymon. I do have a couple of systems where I'm
using xymonfetch, and it's pulling data, including log info and such,
without any issues.
