[Xymon] How to compile client

[Ricardo A. Schütz]

Ok. After some research, here's what I did to compile the client on a Gentoo machine.

- Compiled the server
- rm Makefile
- ./configure.client
- vi Makefile
    PCREINCDIR = -I/usr/lib64
- vi xymond/Makefile
    ../client/xymond_client: $(CLIENTOBJS) ../lib/libxymonclient.a
            $(CC) -o $@ $(RPATHOPT) $(CLIENTOBJS) ../lib/loadhosts.o ../lib/matching.o ../lib/timing.o ../lib/locator.o ../lib/libxymonclientcomm.a ../lib/libxymonclient.a -lpcre $(PCRELIBS) $(NETLIBS) $(LIBRTDEF)
- vi client/Makefile
    IDTOOL=id
- And finally make
- make install

Then I just needed to change the main client task in clientlaunch.cfg and remove the --local option.

Hope this can help someone.

Thanks.

Seems there is a problem with the Makefile's when trying to build the 
client in the non-default "client-side" configuration.

I don't have a quick fix for it, but I would also recommend using the 
server-side configuration.
