[Xymon] How to tell xymongrep to load from xymond?

[Scot Kreienkamp]

Hi JC,

When I do that I get:

2015-06-18 17:00:48.830778 Whoops ! Failed to send message (Connection failed)
2015-06-18 17:00:48.830935 ->  Could not connect to Xymon daemon at 127.0.0.1:1984 (Connection refused)

This is on a remote client.  I have a client doing lots of external tests to offload them from the main xymon server.  How is it picking up the localhost, and how do I change it to the main xymon server?
