Can XYMSRV be a fqdn/hostname not an IP

[Ian Diddams]

simple question...  as time marches on etc has xymon/hobbit reached a stage yet when XYMSRV can be set to a hostname rather than an IP address?

eg  rather than

XYMSRV = "10.10.10.10"

we could have

XYMSRV = "xymonhost"

where "xymonhost" resolves in dns to 10.10.10.10?

This would be a huge benefit where anytime a xymon server is migrated to another system eg underling EOL OS, one wouldn't have to go around changing every single client server's xymon configs to a new Ip...  all that would be required is a reset in an appropriate dns zonefile so dns just provides the new IP after the TTL passes etc.

???

cheers
