The HTTP server is running IBM HTTP Server (basically apache modded
slightly) so I guess there may be something unexpected in the return,
though at the time of this status the server was off so should not have
produced anything special.

Jason.

Interesting.
Can you tell us if the errant XML occurs on all xymondx queries coming
back, or just 'http' results? And all http results, or just this
particular one?
The text where the corruption is should be the post-HTTP Status response
code text, if a connection was possible, or a string with certain types of
connection issues (eg, 'No route to host'), if not. It's possible
something is getting through corrupted. Is it a standard http server on
the other end?
Also, can you pipe this through "cat -A"?
Regards,
-jc
