[Xymon] Client Side Scripts

Hello Xymon,

What I was looking to do, was to monitor a remote server with a custom 
script and run a 'http' web-server test. I was thinking along the lines 
of a script forming an alert.

So the monitored server will have 
http://remote.server.com/cgi-bin/test-server.pl for example, and it 
returns:-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8">
<alert>
<code>1002</code>
<message>MySQL connection refused</message>
</alert>

When Xymon would receive the xml output and process the message accordingly.

Can this be done?

Thanks,
Dallas.
