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.

For EC2 hosts, I changed MACHINEDOTS variable in runclient.sh on xymon
client.
eg.
MACHINEDOTS=hostname.example.com <http://hostname.example.com>;
On server side, no need to use CLIENT or NAME in hosts.cfg, just use
the name which is defined in client's MACHINEDOTS.

Is it possible to key on the "NAME:" or "CLIENT:" definition
instead of HOST? Monitoring several systems in EC2 and all the
servers have hosts defined as ec2-12-34-56-78.blah.blah.blah.
