You appear to have done everything you need to do.  Perhaps the hyphen is
causing problems?  Probably not, because I'm pretty sure I have some DS
names with hyphens.

Check out the rrd-data.log file, or perhaps try running xymond_rrd with
"--debug" enabled.

You could try running xymond_channel on the data channel, filtering the
CFENGINE messages, and make sure the data messages are coming through.  If
xymond_channel doesn't get them, then xymond_rrd won't save them.
