[Xymon] Extraneous DNS queries from Xymon

[John Thurston]

I have defined some hosts with fake host names:
   0.0.0.0  foo.bar.foo  # noconn
They are defined so that clients may send messages to the Xymon server 
and have their status displayed.

What I don't understand is why my Xymon server insists on performing 
name queries for foo.bar.foo. Even adding "testip" to the line doesn't 
eliminate all of the queries. The only way I can make them stop is by 
making bogus entries in my server's hosts file, of the form:
   127.0.0.2  foo.bar.foo

There are no xymonnet tests defined for this host.
The server is not running xymond_alert or xymongen.

What component is querying DNS, and why?
