I can repeat this, it is something on the server side.  It was last seen
working here on 4.3.13.

In a lab I have 3 servers, 2 on Solaris (4.3.4 & 4.3.19) and 4.3.19 on
CentOS 5.  I am sending the summary from the CentOS server to both of the
Solaris servers.  The hosts.cfg on the CentOS server contains
:-


summary builds.centos63_i686 192.168.2.124 http://192.168.2.61/xymon/

summary builds.centos63_i686 192.168.2.122 http://192.168.2.61/xymon/

This is appearing correctly on 4.3.4 (192.168.2.122), but missing
completely on 4.3.19 (192.168.2.124)

Here is a clue, checking xymondboard on each Solaris server from the CentOS
server :-

$ xymon 192.168.2.122 "xymondboard test=centos63_i686"
summary|builds.centos63_i686|green||0|1428398444|1428400244|0|0|192.168.2.61||green
http://192.168.2.61/xymon/ Tue Apr  7 10:20:05 2015

$ xymon 192.168.2.124 "xymondboard
test=centos63_i686"
|builds.centos63_i686|green||1428387271|1428398444|1428400244|0|0|192.168.2.61||green
http://192.168.2.61/xymon/ Tue Apr  7 10:20:05 2015


(note the missing "summary" psuedo hostname field stored on 4.3.19).
