So if you run "xymoncmd --env=/apps/xymon/server/etc/xymonserver.cfg"
and then at the shell prompt do an
   echo $XYMSRV
   echo $XYMONSERVERS
the first one reports the IP, and the second is blank ?


Since the "conn" status claims to be flapping, it would be interesting
if you had a look at the historical status logs - especially the
"Status message received from ..." text near the bottom of the status
page. That can tell you if the two reports originated from one
system, or from two different systems (and in that case, which ones).
