[Xymon] xymon client host name not including domain name in systemd scripts

[ apologies to the list for a) the html-email and b) resending (in plain-text) ]

At least on Debian the reported hostname is configured in '/etc/default/xymon-client' (from what is in the rpm-directory of the source the rpm packages have a similar layout).

The contents of  'CLIENTHOSTNAME' in that file is determined at install time of the xymon package(s). So changeing it later des not take effect without additional steps.

Check if you habe '/etc/default/xymon-client' and the content of the variable. If you change thar file do not forget to restart the xymon-client.

All the best
