It seems a little early to be hypothesizing causes with such a loose 
description of the failure.

Have you enabled --debug on the xymonnet process? That might tell you if 
the requests are all going out but the responses are not coming back. Or 
if there is a significant hicup in name resolution several times a day. 
Or . . .

If you run 'xymonnet --no-update' when the problem is occurring, do you 
see anything interesting in the output?

'twould also be helpful to know what operating system and network 
arrangement you have. Is this all Linux on VMWare with fake nics? Is 
your server an AX-400 on token ring?
