Seems to be a packaging error in the client-package - it doesn't include 
the /etc/init.d/xymon-client script.

The real quick-and-dirty solution (until I figure out the Debian 
packaging bug) is to fetch the debian/xymon-client.init script from 
http://xymon.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xymon/branches/4.3.10/debian/xymon-client.init?revision=7121

Copy it to /etc/init.d/xymon-client, then run

   chmod 755 /etc/init.d/xymon-client
   update-rc.d xymon-client 98 02
