What do you have in tasks.cfg as the ENVFILE setting ?

All of the server-tasks should use xymonserver.cfg for the ENVFILE
setting, and in xymonserver.cfg there should only be a XYMSRV="serverA"
(or serverB, depending on what server this is).

Only the client task should point to the xymonclient.cfg file in
ENVFILE.


The "conn" test is reported by the "xymonnet" task. The only way
it can be reported as "multi-source" is if your xymonserver.cfg
is setup with both servers as the target (in XYMSRV / XYMSERVERS).
