Hey Eric,

Can you give me an example of what you are using for your SRCID?  I put the
following:

ARGUS_MONITOR_ID=33  and I get this in the srcid field = 0.0.0.33

If I put this:
'
ARGUS_MONITOR_ID=12345 I get this, 0.0.48.57

If I try this:

ARGUS_MONITOR_ID='argus-server-test'

I get an error on start:  ArgusError: argus[5150]: 14 Mar 08
16:34:28.916521ArgusParseResourceFile(/etc/argus.conf) syntax error
line 76

If I try this (No quotes):

ARGUS_MONITOR_ID=argus-server-test

Now the srcid is the IP address of argus-server-test defined in the
/etc/hosts file...

Just trying to get an example of 'how' people are using this srcid
(ARGUS_MONITOR_ID) field, and how it is 'supposed' to be used...

thanks.

Bartola
