[Xymon] xymonnet Fatal signal caught

[Scott Post]

Sorry for the delay in responding to this:

There does not appear to be any core file or log messagess that indicated
why it crashes,


However, most of the hosts that I am pinging are DHCP and I am seeing a lot
of issues where is it unable to resolve hostname.

I make backups of the hosts.cfg file before adding hosts, so when it
crashes, I just restore the last working hosts.cfg file.  I am trying
to add hosts in smaller
increments to determine just at what point the the program crashes again.
