 By default, the statistics are presented to Xymon using a so-called 'trends' data-message. These type of messages do not carry a status nor a time stamp. Thus problems in collecting the statistics cannot be passed as a status. The independent polling cycles at client and server introduce variable delays, which cannot be accounted for, although the time of data collection is known at the server-side script.
+It is assumed that the BIND statistics file contains only one set of statistics. Thus the new statistics overwrite the old statistics, rather than being appended.
 This script is only tested using 'trends'-messages. The function to use a status message to inform Xymon has thus not been tested.
