There are existing scripts shipped with the source (in
rpm/hobbit-client.init 
or debian/hobbit-client.init), which reads the hostname from the 
CLIENTHOSTNAME variable in the relevant /etc/default or /etc/sysconfig
file ...

If it doesn't work for you, please file a bug or submit a patch.

(Yes, it hasn't seen the hobbit->xymon change, but will soon, and
probably 
needs some LSB headers too, which I will add soon)

Existing RPM packages supplied for RHEL5/CentOS 5 have the init script I

mentioned above, and ensure the service is set to start at boot (in all
normal 
runlevels, not just 5 ...).
