You should be able to add "DISABLED" to the [alerts] section in 
tasks.cfg, like this:

[alert]
	DISABLED
	ENVFILE /usr/lib/xymon/server/etc/xymonserver.cfg
	NEEDS xymond
	CMD xymond_channel --channel=page  --log=$XYMONSERVERLOGS/alert.log 
xymond_alert --checkpoint-file=$XYMONTMP/alert.chk --checkpoint-interval=600


I have a couple of other posts to the list to get confirmation that this 
still works, but haven't gotten any replies.
