[Xymon] Xymon Client Short Hostname

[Dirk Kastens]

Hi,

I think, the default is to use FQDN. It is defined in xymonserver.cfg:

# General settings
FQDN="TRUE"   # Use fully-qualified hostnames internally. Keep it TRUE 
unless you know better.

>     So you should never have a FQDN in your hosts.cfg
>
>
> So what if you have www.internal.example.com
> <http://www.in.telstra.com> and www.example.com
> <http://www.example.com>?  It seems to me that the primary attribute for
> a hostname is for it to be unique.  On the Internet, that generally
> means FQDN.

Regards,
Dirk
