Can you edit tasks.cfg to run "xymond_client" (in the [clientdata]
section) in --debug mode and see if you see data for these clients?

Also, can you confirm that the non-xymonserver client (the "non-rclient"
one) is working OK and you're getting status messages for?

It seems like either a well-formed client message isn't making its way in
in the first place, or xymond_client isn't properly processing it back
into xymond. Either way, we should be able to see some evidence (or not)
in the xymond_client logs as the clientlog injections occur.
