I went back to look at things and decided I have no idea how to run 
si_monitor.  -help doesn't tell me what's required, though I suspect -db 
may be?  I guess I assumed you just run it and would interactively see 
the output from the clients.  That what I'm doing with my monitoring 
code.  I do see a couple of entries in 
/var/lib/systemimager/clients.xml, but only a couple.  I don't know if 
this is right or wrong.

When I try running si_monitor it tells me:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sbin]# ./si_monitor -db /tmp/test
warning: log file was not specified: ignoring log level: 2.

Then I tried:
./si_monitor -db /tmp/test -log /tmp/log
which seemed to work but when I looked at /tmp/log all it had in it was:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] sbin]# cat /tmp/log
Wed Aug  2 20:02:31 2006: error: could not bind to port 8181 : Address 
already in use

Is it a correct assumption on my part that once everything is configured 
I should be able to run si_monitor and see messages displayed on my 
terminal as they occur on the client?  If so, what is the magic set of 
switches that will do that?

btw - I'll be happy to share my code but I'm not sure what it will do 
that this doesn't already do, once I figure out how to use it.  8-)
