Use "apache=http://prdwatweb016:8090/sstatus" and make sure 
"prdwatweb016" resolves to the right IP. Worst case, add an entry to 
your Xymon servers' /etc/hosts file for it.

(With ordinary http checks, you could specify the IP to use as
    http://prdwatwab016=127.0.0.1:8090/sstatus
  but I'm not sure if that works for the "apache" test).
