[Xymon] analysis.cfg question

[Galen Johnson]

With the number of machines we manage in AWS, that's not really an
option since that would essentially be a custom client for each site. 
The hosts themselves already present themselves as a hostname but it is
not in DNS (for various reasons) and only the amazon provided name is
resolvable.
