[Xymon] NFS mounts

[Josh Luthman]

~hobbituser/server/etc/client-local.cfg

[FUUBAR.imaginenetworksllc.com]
file:/opt/bad-exi-backup

~hobbituser/server/etc/clients.cfg

HOST=FUUBAR.imaginenetworksllc.com
        PROC    smokeping 1 -1 red
        FILE    /opt/bad-esxi-backup red noexist #this will make it red if
the file exists

Bunch of documentation in the config files, too.  It's more typical to have
an opposite (red when a file is missing).  You can also do something like
make time:

FILE    /some/whare/folder/anotherfolder/output.png red mtime<600 #red if
made more than 10 minutes ago
