Introducing docker-xymon

In short: build and deploy this for instant monitoring.

Seeing no viable containerization of the Xymon monitoring system (and the ‘net is large – I could have missed it), I have created some.

Eventually I will be maintaining images on the Docker Hub as well as the source.

For now, get it from https://github.com/deweysasser/docker-xymon

Here’s the README
