[Xymon] client on a sever config?

[Frank]

    Ok thank you.
    One of the plugins/scripts I have running checks the mdstat of many 
of the
linux commands like passwd, ps,ls.  Someone tries to play with these and 
other commands
the sums will change and I will get paged. Just some info for you and 
others.
