Having an issue getting the agent to behave itself on a server. Getting this error when looking at xinetd status:
Must specify a server in observium_agent
I double checked all of the file locations and they are all correct. We have the unix agent running on other servers with an issue, this one is just being challenging.
Has anyone else seen an error like that before?

Did you....
Edit observium_agent_xinetd so the Observium server is allowed to connect. You can do this by substituting 127.0.0.1, or place your IP after it, separated by a space. Make sure to restart xinetd afterwards so the configuration file is read.

Yup, already did that. And restarted.

Yes, we tried that too. It will run locally.

This is xinetd claiming there is no (or maybe it's invalid) server = line in your service observium_agent config, nothing to do with the only_from line.

That's what I observed too. That line is the reference to the bin file for the observium script. I double checked the directory locations, spelling, etc and it all looks good. Running the latest Observium update and pulled the scripts off the server today. We've got a dozen other servers working without an issue.
