No you don't need to HUP. Hosts.cfg, analaysis.cfg, and alerts.cfg are reread every 5 minutes by default. Most config files are reread.

You need to make sure that the name you enter into hosts.cfg matches the output of "hostname" on the remote xymon client. You also need to restart xymon or HUP xymon in order for it to reread the configuration.
