You don't mention what version of Xymon you are running on the Xymon server,
but I'll assume it is one of the 4.2.x releases.

There is a known bug in the Xymon 4.2.x server that causes this behaviour.
It is solved in the current 4.3.0 test-versions (the latest being the
4.3.0-RC1 that was made available a few days ago). It is a server-side
problem, nothing to do with your Xymon clients.
