Ahh, that'll do it then.
IIRC $HOSTNAME is used if available, but the uname syscall, followed by
a fork to `uname -n` itself, are then used to derive the local name.
Just modify XYMONSERVERWWWNAME by hand in xymonserver.cfg to whatever
the external view of the WWW address should be and it should work.
HTH,

Yeah, this was a change around 4.3.18:
From: xymon.CHANGES.terabithia
- On new server installs, $XYMONSERVERHOSTNAME will be set to the
MACHINEDOTS value
given by xymoncmd (which derives it from $HOSTNAME or `uname -n`).
$XYMONSERVERWWWNAME will be set to the XYMONSERVERHOSTNAME value.
I believe this was related to the migration of settings from
wrapper scripts to xymoncmd settings, as how $MACHINEDOTS was
needed to be inverted in systemd-land...
This *should* have been handled by the RPM upgrade process around
this time... Not sure why it wasn't in this case :/

(non-terabithia) and they are set exactly like you mention. Are
you using the terabithia rpms? I suspect it is something
specific to those.

$MACHINEDOTS should be being set in xymonserver.cfg, I
think. In my installation (xymon-4.3.12) I have it the other
way around:
XYMONSERVERHOSTNAME="server.domain.com
<http://server.domain.com>"; # The hostname of your server
MACHINEDOTS="$XYMONSERVERHOSTNAME" # This systems hostname
And for some reason I don't remember, the WWW name is set
explicitly:
XYMONSERVERWWWNAME="server.domain.com
<http://server.domain.com>"; # The name used for this
servers' webserver

Hey,
I'm at a loss here. I'm using the Terabithia RPM for my
Xymon server and the links that are provided in emails
only use the shortname of my xymon server. For example,
https://shortname/xymon
instead of
https://shortname.example.com/xymon
<https://shortname.example.com/xymon>;
I've dug through the xymonserver.cfg file to see where
this is being set and I can trace it to
XYMONSERVERWWWNAME="$XYMONSERVERHOSTNAME" # The name used
for this hosts' webserver
where XYMONSERVERHOSTNAME is defined as
XYMONSERVERHOSTNAME="$MACHINEDOTS" # The hostname of your
server. In the RPM, xymoncmd sets this before we get here
I have FQDN="TRUE" set as well.
Any idea where I can set this to give me the actual fqdn
of the server? I'm assuming that 'xymoncmd' is just
pulling in 'hostname' rather than 'hostname -f'. I must
be missing something.
Anyone have any insight into what I may be missing?
