You need to put a './' in front of the commands:
/home/xymon/server/bin $ ./xymon yada yads.
Unix/Linux is not DOS, the current directory is not in the search path by default, and it shouldn't be.

Thanks,

Hi Team,

I am unable to deleted and rename a host in the Xymon. Please help to get this done with proper command and syntax.

To Delete of an entire host in Xymon I did the following:
Remove the host from the ~/server/etc/hosts.cfg file.
Then ran the following command from path /home/xymon/server/bin
xymon 127.0.0.1 "drop HOSTNAME"

[Getting below error:
bash: xymon: command not found]

To rename a host in the Xymon display I did the following:
Changed the ~/server/etc/hosts.cfg file so it has the new name.
Then ran the following command from path /home/xymon/server/bin
xymon 127.0.0.1 "rename OLDHOSTNAME NEWHOSTNAME"

[Getting below error:
bash: xymon: command not found]

Thanks,
Siddesh
