[Xymon] Terminal Server (Citrix) User Session Monitoring

[bb4 at richter-it.net]

Hi Andreas,
 
I think everything you need can be found here:
https://wiki.xymonton.org/doku.php/monitors:termuser
including the script itself and the changes that have to be made on the XYmon
server.
 
Regards
Torsten
