Good to know. When I can manage to schedule the next upgrade, this
will be something to look forward to. Thanks.

I did this and there have been no more false alarms. Just as a test,
I unplugged one server's network cable and xymon reported it down
within 1-2 minutes. I plugged it back in and it reported it back up
about 1-2 minutes later.
I'd like to thank everyone for the help. Xymon has been so good for
our needs that my coworker said that he feels naked whenever xymon is
offline. (A major switch failed at one point, so he couldn't see the
web server xymon is on. He had to diagnose things the old fashioned
way, i.e. lots of pings.) I recommend it to sysadmins all over the
place now. :)
