[Xymon] Xymon 4.3.x (including 4.3.25) on Solaris 10 SPARC w/libwrap installed

[J.C. Cleaver]

Hi,

I'd wager rrdtool's package brings in libwrap for rrdcached access control
purposes. A little bit of Googling gives me
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=52504&action=edit , so
adding this to lib/xymonrrd.h would seem like it should work

/*
 * Solaris requires that the allow_severity and deny_severity
 * variables be defined in the client program.
 */
#ifdef __sun
extern int allow_severity;
extern int deny_severity;
#endif


A while back there had been discussion on adding libwrap as a compile time
option to xymond as a whole. If that were added in, this would probably be
taken care of.

Still strange that rrdtool pulls it in like that.
