4.3.12. I previously had the ports check disabled in the hosts.cfg file

have then subsequently removed this NOCOLUMNS entry for ports and have
defined a check for a couple of servers straight from the example in the
man page to check for SSH port being open.

It should show up
automatically. Do you get anything from a 

xymon 127.0.0.1 "xymondboard
host=<hostname> test=ports" 

If you do, then the status exists - it
just doesn't show up on the webpage. Then the problem is with xymongen
not reading the correct configuration. Try "kill -HUP `pidof xymond`" to
force it to reload the configuration. 

If there is no ports-status
data, then it is xymond_client that doesn't generate it. Try "kill -HUP
`pidof xymond_client`" to force a reload of the configuration.
