Hmm.. Well, since you are pretty experienced you have probably checked the
obvious places. I would check to make sure that the Xymon server knows
these hosts by these names, and not by a shorter version (without the domain
name).
As far as I know the only place to look is hobbit-clients.cfg. In
hobbit-alerts.cfg this rule works: HOST=%.*\.imaginenetworksllc\.com
The URL has the FQDN, so I can only imagine the same is expected of
hobbit-clients.cfg:
http://myserverhere.com/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?HOST=two.imaginenetworksllc.com&SERVICE=msgs
And you know that the hobbit-clients.cfg bits are exclusive to Xymon and
will not work with Big Brother clients -- Big Brother does not know how to
send the necessary data to Xymon for interpretation. You have to use Xymon
clients for this (which leaves you stuck with Windows machines unless the
BBWin client supports this now).
All other clients are hobbit-4.2.0 just like the server. No patches, just
4.2.0 release.

Neither of the first three HOST are taking effect. I'm looking at the
bb.html page and seeing PROC (for three) stating "clear No process checks
defined" and similar with one and two.
However on an bbc 1.9i btf (better then free) client it is pushing PROCs
to the server:
#cat ~bbuser/bbc1.9i-btf/etc/bbwarnsetup.cfg:
...
PROCS="bbrun" # (YELLOW) WARN IF NOT RUNNING
PAGEPROC="cron" # (RED) PAGE IF NOT RUNNING
export PROCS PAGEPROC
...
