[Xymon] No Interface graphs for hosts on CentOS 7..

[Francois Claire]

Hi Rolf,


I hit this problem a while back on Fedora 16 and I found a trick to get 
it working: to pipe a cat command to the output of the ifconfig.

Here's a patch I proposed:

--- xymonclient-linux.sh.orig    2012-01-06 11:30:09.000000000 +0100
+++ xymonclient-linux.sh    2012-01-06 11:30:35.000000000 +0100

Could you please try it and let us know wether it helps in your case ?
