RE: [hobbit] How do I update xymon client's configuration file from xymon server ?

["Hubbard, Greg L" <greg.hubbard (at) eds.com>]

You *can* use the client update feature, but you will have to fiddle
with it.  The client update feature is designed to update the entire
client, not a single file.  But you can get the right result if you push
out the same client with the updated file.  Not sure what would happen
if you tried to push a tarball with only one file in it.  And you have
to have a different "package" for each operating system, and the
automatic updates don't work on all operating systems -- notably AIX.  I
have no idea if BBWin supports the automated update or not.

	All,
	
	Is it also possible if i would want to update only
/home/hobbit/client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg for all clients from the hobbit
server?
	
	Regards,
