Well, that's exactly the way I did, but I run some gmetads on the same
machine.
Anyway, my configuration is not the real problem, because in my environment,
using a standalone server, with one gmetad and a much more simplier
configuration, monitoring only 128 machines the problem still the same.
What I like to know is what changed in gmetad from 2.5.6 to 3.0.x because
the newer version didin't work here.
