[Xymon] Master slave configuration

[Tom Diehl]

Hi Jeremy,

Turns out that the rpm I got from terabithia, has the following in the
xymonservers.cfg file:
XYMSERVERS="$XYMONSERVERIP $XYMONSERVERS"

If I change it to XYMSERVERS="$XYMONSERVERIP" that resolves the problem.

Thanks for the advice.

Regards,
